An Excerpt:
“Anonymous attacks can be now handled by the FBI, which makes it easier to track them across state lines.
Count us in on your campaign to stop cyberharassment for all ages, but having handled thousands of cases of cyberstalking and harassment through wiredsafety.org’s cyberstalking and harassment team and helpline, it’s important that we take this as seriously as it should be taken. “Bullying” is too often (sadly) brushed off as “kids will be kids.”
Often different motives and methods and different legal ramifications.”

So well said Rosa, and I'm proud to be one of those positive voices. I have that same faith in the human spirit, and the thought that you and many others feel the same way keep fueling that faith. Thanks!

Rosa, Your voice is truly uplifting. Thanks for sharing the positive message in light of the dark actions faced by Kathy.

This is another step on the journey to One - exploring our Aloha. We all wield the same power of the word, it is how we choose our words that makes our voice a tool or a weapon.
The intent within a single word is revealed in the heart of the one speaking.
Disturbing is the darkness we see in others, let is judge not, as we look at another since they are simply mirroring what has been spoken into their life.
We must model that which the world is seeking most, oneness, unity and connection.
Whether we reach out with a branch of hope or a sharp stick, begins in the heart.
Let us first explore becoming one with ourselves - mind, body, and spirit. Then we shall change our world and our voice.

Thank you, Rosa. This is a beautiful piece. I believe in the law of attraction, too.

Rosa:
You live the following quotation:
"The human voice is the organ of the soul." Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The world can be made smaller by acts of violence yet the heart and soul can forever be expanding.

Thank you David.
I so agree that "the heart and soul can forever be expanding." Our capacity to care more, love more, do more and BE more is one of our greatest gifts. To not use that gift is to be less than fully grateful.
