Fellow Mausicans
I believe Hazel has hit the nail on the head. It is never about one side versus the other, and Restorative Justice is a good way of facilitating true and lasting reconciliation. It will of course take tremendous humility on the part of the wrong doers not only to recognise the wrong, but to take a giant step further by acknowledging and apologising for that wrong. All responsible persons must to do this. Teachers in particular always have the opportunity to pass this lesson on to those in their care. Teachers who are parents have a special responsibliity to give this life lesson to their children from their earliest years.
I hope the sessions at The Arouca Pastoral Centre will be well attended and that those who participate will find a way forward to re establishing peace in the land. Politicians, especially at this time, have to ask themselves what their real agenda is and who they are meant to be serving.
re the Reunion... I trust late deciders will take the opportunity to register before the revised final deadline.
Blessings, Pat
Attached a photo and a close up of our Silk Cotton tree getting ready to blossom... a sign of hope.
