Dear darlingest Annelies Marie,

With Barack Obama now installed the 44th president of the USA, one could now sufficiently say that the Civil Rights movement have indeed come full circle and that racial integration has truly become a one whole reality in that leading Republic of the one family of the nations of mankind.
What about religious intolerance? If we allow one segment of our shared humanity to become vulnerable to any sort of irrational hate; if we just sit by and allow the flames of war to consume parts of our human habitation (understanding what our human habitation really and truly is) when will the conflagration stop?

My darlingest, I have pondered for so long about your own hope. So long that our LORD has willed it to become my own. You are a part of me now, my Miyang, just as I am part of you. This is why I shall constantly work to push for Ecumenism and Muslim integration into our societies. Not because I love just one person or segment of our shared humanity but because to love one means to love all. And this is most especially true in this day and age that I am now currently moving in, my love.

As regards to the Middle East, Israel has pulled out of the Gaza strip - it is now the turn of the Palestinian people to determine for themselves a course of national destiny, and one that is attainable within the limits of the present generation, which I know is very limited but not in spirit, mind you - it is from the heart where all the issues of life, time and all its contents pour out into the reality of our present time - each and every heart together weave with Almighty God, for good or ill, the history of these times. I know and I believe that the Palestinians in themselves have the executive will to facilitate the building of the peace - their experience, albeit painful and terrible, should have left them with so much hope - if only they can ascend high enough in their collective will as a people to look above and beyond the fog of war.

Between the two factions, both mandated by their electorate, where any division persists against the common good of the people - it is the quorum of the people who must ultimately retain lawful validity - for it is the honorable right of the majority to choose their own vision of government as well as dictate the will of its constitution - but always on behalf of the minority. Where we to speak about a democracy, it is the consent of the people - the consent of the governed - and not the tyranny of those that govern - that shall give birth to the responsible state. For the executive will must always embody the will of the people - as a one national whole - in time as well as in dimensional space, being constantly mindful of the eternal destiny of our nations.

Peace is not my side nor is peace anybody's side - it is the one whole paradigm that is true and singularly faithful to our shared humanity - it is the original state of our faded Eden - it contains, in exile time, the motions of all in all - an ascent towards our LORD.

Therefore, our "Peace" is to mean, I own your hopes with you, my beloved friend - I will see to your hopes, my constant companion, I shall, God-willing, be for you as their fulfillment. How can this ever be won in battle?

Peace in the Middle East is crucial - it is from here, upon these choice lands, that the siege of war that has embittered our world for so long must be broken that the darkness of our times may soon be lifted - so that we may each, as nations and as human beings together, begin the difficult work of building on the hope of each of our particular undertakings of Country, and by the sheltering wings of peace, extend our good will to those generations of life to come.

I love you.

Always to always.

P.S.
You know, Yang-yang - on the DVD cover of the movie, "The Reaping", there is a picture of our AnnaSophia trying to look scary; *lol* she was trying for the scary cat look. But knowing her heart, it simply doesn't work. Lol.

From now on, upon our Planet Annelies, we'll call her "Sunbeams", our All-American calico cat. It says on her website that she's doing some kickboxing as well - awww, looks like our Sunbeam's growing sharp teeth, cute but sharp.
