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. - Nov 6, 2008 Cheryl Kolander, Aurora Silk
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.
