Articles

Hi folks, I have some articles submitted to me for publication this week. I had originally formatted them and installed them here.

On final reading I was not happy with the way different articles clashed with each other's representations. Particularly do not want to let the Snooze become a Fight Arena. Although no derogatory names were called, names were mentioned and accusations were made.

So I have pulled them out of this issue as the other Zones do not want to wade through a quarrelsome atmosphere. I still want your articles, but not combative hurtful articles, rather enlightening items preferably composed by yourselves.

How about these subject: "Proposal complete with rules for elections of all levels "; "Proposal for expanding the Snooze to have a PDF issue"; "Proposal for a rewritten Policy"...ect Ed-P-T

If you woke up this morning with more health than illness, you are more blessed than the million who will not survive the week.

If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture or the pangs of starvation, you are ahead of 500 million people around the world.

If you attend a church meeting without fear of harassment, arrest, world.

If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof over your head and a place to sleep, you are richer than 75% of this world.

If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish someplace, you are among the top 8% of the worlds wealthy.

If your parents are still married and alive, you are very rare, even in the United States.

If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful, you are blessed because the majority can, but most do not.

If you can hold someone's hand, hug them or even touch them on the shoulder, you are blessed because you can offer a healing touch.

If you can read this message, you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world that cannot read anything at all.

If you can pass this along, you will be blessed in ways you may never even know.
