HAPPY HAPPY!

Thank you to all of you who voted.

This is more than a change in direction for our country

It is a change in direction for the whole world.

Hope has returned.

Now the real work begins:

Let us all work for World Peace and Prosperity.

It is my belief and practice that

International commerce

can

promote World Peace and Understanding.

Of course! it must be conducted consciously and with Social Responsibility.

I can be very proud now:

of my country, of my place in the world, and

of all the dear people who have bought their textile art materials thru me all these years.

For 40 years I have conducted an Artist's micro-business,

producing and expanding, educating and developing

the very finest in the textile arts:

all natural fabrics, all natural dyes,

all for Health and Beauty,

all for Joy and Art.

from Sept. 08:

I‘ll be going to Uzbekistan soon

to do my prayers

for all and the planet

Think of me. Each day

each nite send a prayer for

Sanity and Peace

On the planet

There are many places:

The exchange of goods from all around the globe

promotes understanding and, therefore, Peace.

“May there be an overt peace and cease fire

Everywhere,” while I’m gone, think of me,

Midnite will be mid day there

I’ll be at prayer

In whatever mosque, church or

graveyard

That I’m allowed to pray

Even Bhuddist caves from times before time.

Let forgiveness reign in our hearts

Please, especially from now thru October,

from now thru November:

Keep your part of the world safe

Honest and true.

Open letter
