Hello
This came in and I thought it would be good to share it today.

Hi Shirley, I was surfing the web and came across your website and found it very interesting. You got alot of stuff going on.

I was wondering since you are very perceptive to the feelings of people, maybe you would be inspired by something that I wrote.

My hope is that it will help someone out there.

I was thinking about the soldiers and how each one must miss someone.
So far away sometimes where weeks feel like just a couple of days.
At the same time a minute can take a lifetime to understand.
I wrote this song where four minutes are really decades.

I sang and played the instruments
Anyway, Hope ya like it,

Here are the words:

Love and hope mauricio pineda drpic may 2006
Find new meanings to what you believe within your soul.
Reflect on perceptions beyond your affect.
What is expected right now?
Your presence only knows.
What do you make of it all?
Answers will sing like songs so you can think about something else.
Love and Honor are on the road. You know they are.
Hopes and Dreams are always close. You can count on that.
You know you can make it all just be great.
Keep those hopes close and it will be alright.
Memories of nice times heal overall and the mind.
Healing overall with the minds memory of a nice time just takes awhile.

Find the time to create your dreams with care.
Your journeys are forever within many histories.
What is expected right now?
Your presence only knows.
What do you make of it all?
Your confidence will tell you. Look and see all around.
Love and Honor are on the road, you know they are.
Hopes and Dreams are always close, you can count on that.
Even if you are lost in a motion
As if everything was a slow commotion
What winds do you sense in the sails you guide?
What does it mean to try? It's your notion.
You made it happen all along.
Your dreams are there before you. It just takes time.
This means you can think and relax trance of happy thoughts.
That's laughter over there and it's good fun.
A happy thought of laughs is heard now and then.

Find the moments of this day, like the moons light at dusk,
To see what has been learned during your time through life.
What is expected right now?
Your presence only knows.
What do you make of it all?
It's just a guess.



thanks and peace,
from,
Mauricio Pineda Drpic

My condolences to Senator Dennis Kucinich and his private loss this Veterans day. The above post by Shirley was Divinely inspired as always.

"Family Angel" Beth Ann Kucinich joins the angels

Congressman Dennis Kucinich's youngest sister, Beth Ann, passed away today. Please keep her and the Kucinich family in your prayers and in your hearts.



CLEVELAND, OH (Tues. Nov. 11) - Proud Army Veteran, Beth Ann Kucinich, beloved youngest sister of Congressman Dennis Kucinich, died today, Veteran's Day, at Veteran's Hospital in Cleveland, after a battle with acute respiratory distress syndrome. She was 48 years old.

Her family was at her side throughout the three week ordeal, as she struggled to survive while on life support.

Beth Ann Kucinich served in the US Army at Ft. Campbell, Kentucky. A talented musician as well as an artist, she sold many of her works of art to her fellow veterans at the Brecksville Veterans Center. Her specialty was drawing famous cartoon characters for friends and loved ones on special occasions.

An avid heavy metal fan, she attended many local area concerts and practiced her own music with a guitar, with an extraordinary impression of Janis Joplin.

"She was pure love. Every action, every sentiment, every piece of art, every word she spoke was an expression of love. Beth Ann was our family's angel, our 'Heavy Metal Angel', said her eldest brother Dennis.

"Our brother, Perry, passed away last December. Beth Ann never got over Perry's sudden passing. The two had been inseparable. She talked about Perry constantly and she longed to be with him," Dennis said.

She was the beloved mother of Asher; treasured sister of Dennis, Frank, Gary, Teresa, Larry, and the late Perry Kucinich; and dear aunt and a great aunt.

The Kucinich family will receive visitors at Golubski Funeral Home, 6500 Fullerton Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio on Wednesday, November 12, 4pm to 9pm, and on Thursday from 9:30 am until 11:00. The funeral service will begin at 11:00 am, with interment at Calvary Cemetery

The Re-Elect Congressman Kucinich Committee
