Moderator - Divana
In order for me to sit back and do nothing The Elite Joiners Group committee ( that's me) asked Divana do be a moderator. It will also help when a post or reply needs to be deleted such as what happened today. Thanks Divana for accepting the invite!

The Respnsibility of Kindness
July 6, 2008
Tricycle's Daily Dharma
The Responsibility of Kindness
Responsibility does not only lie with the leaders of our countries or with those who have been appointed or elected to do a particular job. It lies with each of us individually. Peace, for example starts within each one of us. When we have inner peace, we can be at peace with those around us. When our community is in a state of peace, it can share that peace with neighboring communities, and so on. When we feel love and kindness towards others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace. And there are ways in which we can consciously work to develop feelings of love and kindness. For some of us, the most effective way to do so is through religious practice. For others it may be non-religious practices. What is important is that we each make a sincere effort to take seriously our responsibility for each other and for the natural environment.

A to Z Photo Challenge
We’ll start this one over again with the letter ‘A.’ There’s lots of opportunity for creativity with this challenge! Main subject of your photo should obviously match the next letter. You might have to go back a little bit to make sure you’re on the right letter.
Generally, proper names can’t be used. We want to keep the pictures general, readily identifiable to any viewer as representing a given letter of the alphabet. For example, I wouldn't post a picture of 'Miss Kitty’s Saloon' for the letter 'M' but it would be ok under the letter ‘S’ for ‘saloon.’ I wouldn't post a picture of myself, Patricia, under the letter 'P.'
Please type the letter & include a short description with your entry. While you’re welcome to enter more than once, please no consecutive postings, so everyone has a chance.
This challenge will stay open, unless participation drops
Post your masterpiece or lucky shot in the reply!

Bed Puppy
Now I lay me down to sleep, The king-size bed is soft and deep...
I sleep right in the center groove
My human being can hardly move!
I've trapped her legs, she's tucked in tight
And here is where I pass the night
No one disturbs me or dares intrude
Till morning comes and "I want food!"
I sneak up slowly to begin
my nibbles on my human's chin.
She wakes up quickly,
I have sharp teeth-
I'm a puppy, don't you see?
For the morning's here
and it's time to play
I always seem to get my way.
So thank you Lord for giving me
This human person that I see.
The one who hugs and holds me tight
And shares her bed with me at night!
