THOUGHT OF THE DAY A SINGLE CLOUD CAN ECLIPSE THE SUN BUT ALL OF NIGHT CANT OBSCURE THE LIGHT We all want to help one another, human beings are liket hat. We [all] want to live by each other's happiness,notby each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful. But we have lost the way. Greed has poisoned men's souls, has barricaded theworldwith hate; has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed but we have shut ourselvesin. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our clevernesshardand unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than clevernessweneed kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent andallwill be lost. The aeroplane and the radio then th telavision andnowthe internet have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men, criesoutfor universal brotherhood for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughouttheworld, millions of despairing men, women and little children, victims of a system thatmakesmen torture and imprison innocent people. To those who can hear me I say "Do not despair". The misery that is now upon us is but the passingofgreed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass and dictators die and thepowerthey took from the people, will return to the people and so long as men die [now] libertywillnever perish. . . Soldiers, don't give yourselves to brutes, men whodespiseyou and enslave you. Who regiment your lives, tell you what to do, what to think andwhatto feel, who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men, machinemen,with machine minds and machine hearts. You are not machines. You are not cattle.Youare human. You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don't hate - only the unlovedhate.Only the unloved and the unnatural. Soldiers, don't fight for slavery, fight for liberty! In the seventeenth chapter of Saint Luke it is written                              "the kingdom of God is within man " -not one man, nor a group of men, but in all men;inyou. You the people have the power. The power to createmachines,the power to create happiness. You the people have the power to make this life freeandbeautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure. Then in the name of democracy, let ususethat power. Let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world, a decent world thatwillgive men a chance to work, that will give you the future and old age and security. By the promiseofthese things, brutes have risen to power, but they lie. They do not fulfil their promise,theynever will. Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people. Now let us fight to fulfil that promise. Let us fighttofree the world, to do away with national barriers, to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance.Letus fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to allmen'shappiness. Soldiers, in the name of GOD, let us all unite! Defore we die! GOODNIGHT nitehawk    HOME
