STICKY POST

Chain for Peace in the World

, , , ...

I always wanted to do something for Peace on Earth, and today I found a way thanks to that blog and the artists I know who already did, for example, a song for peace :wizard:
So here, for you, are a few songs I have found in Youtube:
http://www.playingforchange.com/

In 1982, one film have very impressed me :eyes: When it was in cinemas, I have seen it three times. Then I have read some books about the life of the hero and I dreamed to do something strong with my life like he did :yes:

Maybe you know him, his life... He was the Mahatma (Great soul) Gandhi :smile: The film "Gandhi" was made by Richard Attenborough. It's a "must to see film" in my advice :up:
Have a look here
:idea: If you know some other songs in your language, or other artistic things like photos slideshow, films, animations, musics, paintings, poetries, famous speach... turning around Peace.
It can also be for:
  • Freedom
  • Beauty
  • Abundance
  • Love
  • Brotherhood
  • self-consciousness
  • All things needed for Peace...

- Please gives us a link here in your comment :smile: Thank you!

:idea: Also you can, and that's the goal here, add your own blog post for Peace, and I will put here the link to yours, you will also put a link to mine post and so on for each blog posts! :smile:
By this way we can make a blog's chain for Peace :wizard:

---> Think with your heart! :heart:

To add the "heart-dove" picture down on the right side of your blog, just copy the CSS code here and past it in the "custom style sheet" of your Opera blog design section:
#mobmenu {
background: url(http://files.myopera.com/holdowicz-claude/design/heart-dove.png) no-repeat;
width: 120px;
height: 120px;
z-index: 999;
float: right;
right: 7px;
bottom: 7px;
position: fixed;
display: block !important;
}
If you don't know where the "custom style sheet" is located, have a look on my tutorial here: http://my.opera.com/holdowicz-claude/blog/how-to-change-your-banner

Zion train

, , , ...

Donut123 alias Steven has invited me to join the Zion train. I asked what is the Zion train and he said:

"In the Rastafari movement, "Zion" stands for a Utopian place of unity, peace and freedom, as opposed to "Babylon," the oppressing and exploiting system of the western world and a place of evil.

For Rastafarians, Zion is to be found in Africa, and more specifically in Ethiopia, where the term is also in use. Some Rastas believe themselves to represent the real Children of Israel in modern times, and their goal is to repatriate to Africa, or to Zion. Rasta reggae is peppered with references to Zion; among the best-known examples are the Bob Marley songs '"Zion Train," "Iron Lion Zion," the Damian Marley song featuring Nas; "Road to Zion," The Abyssinians' "Forward Unto Zion" and Kiddus I's immortal track "Graduation In Zion," which is featured in the 1977 cult roots rock reggae film "Rockers." Reggae groups such as Steel Pulse and Cocoa Tea also have many references to Zion in their various songs. In recent years, such references have also crossed over into pop and rock music thanks to artists like OAR "To Zion Goes I", P.O.D. (band) Payable On Death with song "set your eyes to zion," Sublime, Lauryn Hill, Boney M (Rivers of Babylon), Dreadzone with the reggae-tinged track "Zion Youth."

Example from the Mad Professor song "Africa Is Zion": "Africa is Zion and Zion is Africa, Ethiopia is Mount Zion / Them tell us that Africa is Africa, the Bible tell us it's Zion.""...

In a way that talks about Peace, so here is my Zion train :wink:
