Yup, well about the only thing my Father ever said to me about the war was "It's a terrible thing to kill people, Liz"....and he lived with that horror all his life.

He lived with it, for us....in the hope that life would improve and that people would start being kind to one another.

I don't use my father to 'make a point'....I talk about him because I know exactly how he'd feel about so many things that are going on right now....He was a man of utter honesty and integrity, and this world, this country and the people who run it, be they politicians or Corporate Crooks would horrify him.

So, please, have your own opinions by all means, but do NOT tell me that I am not allowed to talk about my Dearest Dad. It's Dad who brings out my tears, who makes my voice shake with rage and upset about all that's going on right now...and it's my Dad who gives me strength.

Because of him, I am a free person, free to express myself in whatever way I so choose, as are you.

And yes, David.....Love IS all you need, actually....but sadly the world hasn't woken up to that fact yet.
