coexist

at the Warped Tour in Carson,Ca 2009
Back in the day if you did not dress the part of the music you were going to listen you people gave you a hard time.

I would go to Punk shows with pretty much the same hair cut that I have now, a t-shirt, some Levi’s 501 and Vans.

Not with ex-husbands under the same room!

The guy that has the website that makes the bumper stickers Coexist stuff saw my photo and sent me a mesg that read “Dawn, You look HOT!”

I wonder if I can get free shipping and handling now…..LOL!

jeez I’m even sending “it” over the internet now that I’m separated…

If we could shrink the earth’s population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all the existing human ratios remaining the same, it would look something like the following:

There would be:

57 Asians
21 Europeans
14 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south
8 Africans

52 would be female
48 would be male

70 would be non-white
30 would be white

70 would be non-Christian
30 would be Christian

89 would be heterosexual
11 would be homosexual

6 people would possess 59% of the entire world’s wealth and all 6 would be from the United States.

80 would live in substandard housing
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition 1 would be near death; 1 would be near birth 1 (yes, only 1) would have a college education 1 would own a computer

When one considers our world from such a compressedperspective, the need for acceptance, understanding and education
becomes glaringly apparent.

The following points are also something else to ponder…

If you woke up this morning with more health than illness… you are more blessed than the million who will not survive this week.

If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation… you are ahead of 500 million people in the world.

If you can attend a church meeting without fear of harassment, arrest, torture, or death… you are more blessed than three billion people in the world.

If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep… you are richer than 75% of this world.

If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish someplace … you are among the top 8% of the world’s wealthy.

If your parents are still alive and still married…you are very rare.

If you can read this message,
you are blessed
over two billion people in the world that cannot read at all.

Someone once said: What goes around comes around.

Work like you don’t need the money.
Love like you’ve never been hurt.
Dance like no-one’s watching.
Sing like no-one’s listening.
Live like it’s Heaven on Earth.

with Wayne Brady and they had En Vogue on.
They had this song Free Your Mind and they sang a bit of it tonight it a medley of their songs.

I have the Funky Divas CD

Free Your Mind

I wear tight clothing and high heel shoes it doesn’t make me a prostitute
I like rap music wear hip-hop clothes
That doesn’t mean that I’m sellin’ dope
Oh my please forgive me for having
Straight hair
It doesn’t mean there’s another blood in
My heirs
I might date another race or color
Doesn’t mean I don’t like my strong
Black brothers

Chorus:free your mind and the rest will follow, be colorblind, don’t be so shallow(before you read me you gotta learn how to see me)

So I’m a sista
Buy things with cash
That really doesn’t mean that all my
Credit is bad,
So why dispute me and waste my time,
Because you think that the price is too
High for me
I can’t look without being watched
You rang my buy before I made up my,
Mind
Oh now attitude why even bother
I cant change your mind you can’t
Change my color

quote from Bob Marley

“I don’t have prejudice against himself. My father was a white and my mother was black. Them call me half-caste or whatever. Me don’t dip on nobody’s side. Me don’t dip on the black man’s side nor the white man’s side. Me dip on God’s side, the one who create me and cause me to come from black and white.”

One Love, One Heart
Let’s get together and feel all right
Hear the children crying (One Love)
Hear the children crying (One Heart)
Sayin’ give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right
Sayin’ let’s get together and feel all right

Let them all pass all their dirty remarks (One Love)
There is one question I’d really like to ask (One Heart)
Is there a place for the hopeless sinner
Who has hurt all mankind just to save his own?
Believe me

One Love, One Heart
Let’s get together and feel all right
As it was in the beginning (One Love)
So shall it be in the end (One Heart)
Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right
One more thing

Let’s get together to fight this Holy Armageddon (One Love)
So when the Man comes there will be no no doom (One Song)
Have pity on those whose chances grove thinner
There ain’t no hiding place from the Father of Creation

Sayin’ One Love, One Heart
Let’s get together and feel all right
I’m pleading to mankind (One Love)
Oh Lord (One Heart)

Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right
Let’s get together and feel all right

and this program called Why We Sing came on.

I was moved, I got goose bumps, I was misty eyed I laughed, I felt like sharing this.

It was SO touching.

I’m glad that three of MY fav four musical parts are listed in the trailers if you follow my link. The interviews were also very enlightening and heartfelt.

We should learn how to Coexist with the Earth.
I like the flag of the photo of Earth on a blue field but it only shows half of us.
I just found this Flag by James Cadle

and I saw this really neat bumper sticker. It spelled out COEXIST in various religious symbols. I found this one on the internet that shows the meaning of each of the different symbols.
