I Have A Dream

Dear friends.
How can one comprehend let alone believe the events of the past 24 hours.
It is indeed with such a heavy heart that i write this message to you
maybe it is just a way to vent the feelings inside.
For 7 long years have suffered my symptoms however in past 5 years
discovered the wonderful world of the internet.
friends without faces majority of them coming from the USA
friends that have not only shared many laughs and tears but friends that i classify as family.
when i first saw news reports thought i was dreaming
till one by one being in touch with people,
each nick or email i see such a relief that that individual is alive that they are ok.
I feel a terror at the possibility of war yet believe that the people responsible for this atrocity should be dealt with swiftly.
however hope and pray that this is not done hastily and more innocent lives lost
as enough lives been lost by this tragedy.
what hatred can drive people to commit such descipable acts,
i dont think anyone will ever come up with an answer for.
I have always had a belief system that despite whatever circumstance
that good can be gleamed this belief system has been rocked to the core by the events of the past 24 hours.
i have thought through many tears of relief when see ppl alive and
huge sorrow when learn of the loss of aloved one and felt in a way was like a hallucination.
everyone of us in fibrohugs has felt lost lonely scared by our
individual circumstances bewildered yet what happened when we discovered the love
the tapestry that we call fibrohugs.
whether short stints or long we come back because we feel loved wanted
understood we have felt the bond of family a belonging a mutual respect
both towards ourselves and that which we extend to others.
the alienation gone.
are we therefore not leaders
depite our ilnesses have we not in our community of fibrohugs acheived what others havent.
my dream is for us to be able to bottle what ingredients it is that we have found
here so that everyone regardless where they are in the world
can feel it even if just for a minute.
for if we can do that
there would be no bombs of hatred
there would just be the willingness to extend the hand of love peace and friendship.
i heard it once said that it only takes one person to make a difference
yet our community is many.
my heart is full of sorrow for those who have lost their loved ones.
i hope in my heart that my special online friends whether they be from hugs
or elsewhere are safe and that their families are all ok.
i dream of the day that the love we create and have already created is released
upon the world so that we never ever have to face
such a day of infamy in our lives ever again.
this wombat hugs each and everyone of you,
those that have met and those yet to meet in my heart.
my heart felt condolences to all of you for any loss of friend or family member.
please know that you one and all are in my wife and i
and extended familys hearts and thoughts during this time.

please stay safe one and all
your aussie friend
