Dona Nobis Pacem – BlogBlast for Peace

posted by Babs on Thursday, 5 November 2009

Every time I do Blog Blast for Peace I think of a song I used to listen to, back in the early seventies. I haven’t been able to find it on YouTube. This year I managed to get hold of an mp3 of it. It’s written and sung by Tom Paxton and says it all really. As most of you know, it’s been a hard time for me to think about blogging lately but I didn’t want to miss this day.

I put this little movie together at the last minute.

open source video, online video platform, video solution

Stumble it!

Really enjoyed your Peace Globe movie and song combination.

Peace to you, Babs.

That’s a beautiful song Babs and takes me back to the time when peace meant such a lot to so many ordinary people. Not only peace between Nations, but between neighbours and fellow workers and strangers in the street. Thank you for that little piece of peace X

That was a great song, and I love the animated Peace Globe. The best part of this event is seeing the creativity and the thoughts around such a great idea. Thanks for sharing, Babs.

And I’ve had my own struggles with blogging lately. I’m glad you decided to participate.

Oh, wow. Beautiful. I’m so glad I saw someone mention in the comments that you’re good with the “techie stuff,” because I didn’t realize at first this was a video. I hit “play” then scrolled down to listen to the song.

Dona Nobis Pacem!

Babs:

I love the song. But the movie you put together is really impressive. You certainly have talent for that sort of thing. Something, I’m afraid, that I am sadly lacking.

Happy trails.

That particular aspect of peace, that it has to start within, is so very true. Last minute or not – great post!
