Hello? This is BURMA calling? You're too busy? Oh, OK, never mind then. Sorry to BOTHER you!!!



Those fortunate enough to live in societies where they are entitled to full political rights can reach out to help their less fortunate brethren in other areas of our troubled planet.

People had so many more reasons than usual to skip church today. It snowed! and there was the whole time-change thing. Very confusing. Did I mention the UK game? It started at noon (yes, a few people actually got up and left at noon.)


But for those who came, to contemplate the troubles in Burma aka Myanmar, to learn about working with despair and moving from denial to compassion., it was a good day.


About half of those who bothered to show up also remembered to wear orange/red, and I was able to acomplish my goal of having a picture to put up on the website -- a site that we hope will be seen by many people in Burma -- http://www.dontforgetburma.org/


Was it a silly waste of time? Well, I don't think so. What do you think?
Use your liberty to promote ours... Aung San suu kyi
