How can we use our pussy-ness to help the world on a large scale? I'm looking into going to Iraq to help the people, though I don't know if I can swing it. Any ideas on how to show the world the value of peace and non-aggressive strength?

Wed, February 23, 2005 - 8:17 AMI can't add a lot, but I do know quite a few pussies, locally who work globally.
My eye doctor takes used glasses (donated to Lions' Club) to undeveloped countries: Africa, last
year, Guatamala, this year.He fits them to people who need them.
Two of my neighbors go to Isreal and work as mediators.
My son is involved in "Engineers without Borders", they design and build water systems and sanitation in South America. It's like Doctors without Borders. There must be more groups like that.
Another doctor in my community goes to Africa to vaccinate against malaria.
The Quakers have programs like this all over the world. Quakers are big Pussies.

Wed, February 23, 2005 - 12:03 PMI like the Peace Corps. I know a lot of people who've done that, all over the world. I think it's great.
We can work on being peaceful in our own lives even when our blood is boiling. Man, is that hard. -
