Today I'm joining hundreds of bloggers across the world in a movement called "Blogblast For Peace". As I said last year.... although I seem to use my blog for just this movement, it is too important not to participate! Bloggers will unite in a global cry for peace in this annual event. One day. One voice. All it takes is one post. Don't have a blog? You can also join us by using social media. My globe will be on Facebook, Twitter, MeWe, Mastodon and Instagram too.
Post and share, anywhere you are online. It's that simple. Join us!
This is my 17th globe in my 15th year participating. The world today can be a scary place. The polarisation is alarming, disturbing even... So many things are happening at the same time. The world is burning, literally too. It feels like the world is in a transition, shedding its skin to emerge renewed and fresh.How that world will be is up to us all. Peace begins with all of us. Find peace inside yourself and spread it out. We can stand together and create a better world. Imagine... You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one...
With all that in mind my globe evolved very organically. On Deviantart I found this wonderful Windows Live Wallpaper by JimKing. The child is overlooking the world, pondering what to make of it... It also made me think about the fool in tarot. That brought me to a quote on peace from the Witches' Wisdom Tarot by Phyllis Curott & Danielle Barlow, in the counsel section of the '7 of water' card. I wanted to include the peace symbol and one of the first results I got was the hand. Somehow it all fit together and my globe was born.
To everyone: I wish you peace! One moment, one step can be the beginning; one person can make the difference!

Cora! I waited patiently for your peace globe with bated breath! The one you created in March for the Ukraine launch still moves - the young soldier - the fire..It was visceral and powerful. Now THIS is ever so beautiful. The mention of "water" ties in with my own post today. Just the longing I sense in the child's onlooking. And your use of Tarot and "non-traditional" influences makes it even more intricate. WOW. Just WOW. I can't wait to share this. Thank you so much for inspiring us again and again! Peace to you and yours, Mimi
