............"I'll know what i think when i see what i say" -- graham wallas............
****************************************************************************************************************
just when i wanted to keep a memory of my 'pondering by chance', i found an avenue to share, if not view alone, what runs in my mind AS LIFE GOES ON.the law of all laws
"aequum et bonum est lex legum."
what is good and equitable is the law of all laws.
i first heard this maxim when i joined a sorority in law school a couple of heartaches and 20 pounds ago. i am in support of this opinion, and had hope to not ever have the wanting to remind anyone that comes my way of how the word ‘fairness’ should be humanity’s slogan.
and then last week’s event took place:
i saw 2 little girls, of different nationalities, talking to each other – girl1 asked if she can play with girl2; girl 2 said no, “because you don’t have my skin color”.
girl1 ran away in tears to mommy, while girl2 exchanged smiles with her daddy.
i find it disturbing to realize how even the youngest of mankind would describe people by the shade of their skin, when at no effort, we can be more human to be colorblind.
coincidentally, i witnessed this while reading the news about some refugees rallying to be granted legal stay in a country where they have proven to be assets and not liabilities; contributors, and not robbers. the government is not considering yet.
i would understand the need to evict criminals threatening to halt peace and safety; but to reject fellowmen of good moral character???? somebody tell me, please, how, in the first place, can specific citizens own specific parts of the world and keep it to themselves, when God intended all of us to coexist and share HIS blessings with one another.
what is good and equitable is the law of all laws.
when will we have the audacity to bow down and recognize this credo..

This land is your land, this land is my land
La,la,la…
This land was made for you and me
As I was walking a ribbon of highway
I saw above me an endless skyway
I saw below me a golden valley
This land was made for you and me
As I was walkin' - I saw a sign there
And that sign said - no tress passin'
But on the other side .... it didn't say nothin!
Now that side was made for you and me!
we simply lost memory of the song :-(
