Wonderful dedication, Mary. Yes, I think we all feel with the people of France today. And it may well happen in Denmark too. Our politicians seemingly do nothing to prevent it. And ISIS is determined to rule the world for Islam :( :( :( #1642528

A touching and beautiful dedication Mary. Acts like this shake our world, knowing that it can happen anywhere. Out hearts and prayers go out to those who lost their lives and to their families and friends. Nothing will be the same now. So sad what we do to each other. #11398993

Mary, such a beautiful tribute to France, and all the atrocities its facing at the moment. It could well have been our own countries this could have happened to. #11400061

For France! Do we dare worry what is next or just appreciate what we have while we still have it?? Those poor families of the dead and so many innocent people killed. Such destruction. Someone shared a saying yesterday spoken by Martin Luther King, Jr.... "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."

This World does it all backwards. :(((((

What an ancient road you traveled on, Mare. That Castle at the top has me going back in time wondering what it was like when it was new and active and thriving. That road you were on was either for horse and buggy or still just a hillside. Time keeps on ticking and this withstood time so you could see it. I pray it stays standing until God takes it down with fire and peace comes for a thousand years. :) (Book of Revelation). :) I hope you are doing better daily! I'll drop you a line soon. -Little Pommy :) #11400415
