This morning about an hour ago Tim (in well) and I placed 50 yellow banners in the 50 holders that run between the Peace Garden and the Peace Fire. As the day progresses, local families and families from Hobart will come to write their individual prayers for peace on each of the banners. The other photo shows neighboring friends around the dinner table last night sewing up the prayer flags/banners in preparation for today. Just this simple act of friends and children coming together to share in food, conversation and the making of a small community event is enough to warm the heart and reignite the sense that the human family is capable of kindness, compassion and generosity of spirit. Tomorrow, will bring more photos of today's activities.
