Peace is Peace

In the middle of a long work afternoon today I heard a noise coming from the outdoors ...it was drumming, and it was getting louder and louder as I listened.  Suddenly from the corner of my office window I spied a band of marching drummers and a whole slew of  folks following them.  I ran out to the street and watched the most awesome group of kids marching down MLK Jr Way passing the clinic. Their signs showed that it was a March for Peace, and the shirts they wore showed they were from the neighborhood elementary school. Oh what to fun to watch boys and girls from teeny tiny to pre- teen out celebrating peace with a parade.  I stood, clapped and cheered them on. My favorite sign held by a young boy,  "Peace is Peace".
