Thoughts for today....

Seeing people walk the streets of Amsterdam gives me some hope that the world may yet survive hatred which is the greatest enemy of all. In one city there are so many cultures and relative peace and tranquility. Actually the only thing that causes me concern, if anything, is the tourists. For example to watch an older American couple pass by a 'lady of the evening' displaying herself in the Red Light District. The older woman stared in awe and then said to her husband, "Why, I never..." I immediately passed by her and asked, "Do you have children?" She looked at me and said "Yes." To which I replied "Well you can't say never because if you have children then obviously you have done "it" at least one time."
