A MESSAGE OF PEACE, HOPE AND UNDERSTANDING (AND DOGWOOD TREE PHOTO BLOG)

HI EVERYBODY:

One of my friends told me that my LOUD COWGIRL MOUTH must have woke up the World as Everybody is talking Earth Changing Events!!!!!
That may be a compliment (?) to me, but it is absolutely NOT TRUE!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOhhhhhh No-
All the credit for bouncing people out of their comfy little beds goes to the Main Stream Media. The News with vivid photos announces a severe threat against the American People with Nuclear Things. (Talk about Fear Mongering, Scaring the People, Sounding the Horn, Whatever). (Don't forget the Asteroid Card)
That is what is waking people up from a sweet dream to a nightmare of Biblical Proportions........
Did anyone else notice the Media, The Government Employees, the Oil Companies, who have been saying for years now that Everything is Okay, Don't Worry, Be Happy, Trust Us, ETC.,
have changed their story to:
Absolutely Nothing is Okay?
So Yeah, (DUH), I think people are awake NOW and in Shock of what am I going to do for me and my family??

I would like to ask All Of You to stand back, take a deep breath, take a time out and do some more research on all things. There are many dangers in front of us, but there have always been many dangers. We are just more aware of them now.
I do not know the Man in N. Korea, he does not know Me. I have heard he is young, I know I am old. He lives in Korea, I live in Texas. I am a Poor Country Cowgirl, He is Wealthy Male Royalty (in his Country).
It appears on the surface that He and I have nothing in common. Different Culture, different language, different Religions,different environment. In fact, we are all different, no two of us is alike.

I want us to focus on the things we have in Common. We live on Earth. We are Human. That is about it and not much to work with to bridge the gap in Human Understanding. It is, however, a starting point to change our point of view Globally from what "was" to what now "is".

I have found an Avenue of Hope. It has to do with Your Photostudy tonight of my Flowering Dogwood Tree. I know (for a fact) that these same trees grow in Korea and that the Young Man has gazed at these same flowers and felt the sheer Glory of their beauty.
Because he is Human, he has emotions like we all do.
It is at this level I would meet this Man, in his heart and the true essence of his being. I would invite him to view my beautiful Dogwood Flowers shared here today. So, if anybody knows this young man, please share my Blog to him. And to Everybody in the World I would say: Please take some time to think about things and see what comes to pass. Think about what is important. Wishing You all Peace Today.

Cornus (genus)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedi

Cornus is a genus of about 30-60 species^{[Note 1]} of woody plants in the family Cornaceae, commonly known asdogwoods. Most are deciduous trees or shrubs, but a few species are nearly herbaceous perennial subshrubs, and a few of the woody species are evergreen. Several species have small heads of inconspicuous flowers surrounded by an involucre of large, typically white petal-like bracts, while others have more open clusters of petal-bearing flowers. The various species of dogwood are native throughout much of temperate and boreal Eurasia and North America, with China and Japan and the southeastern United States particularly rich in native species.

Species include the common dogwood Cornus sanguinea of Eurasia, the widely cultivated flowering dogwood(Cornus florida) of eastern North America, the Pacific dogwood Cornus nuttallii of western North America, the Kousa dogwood Cornus kousa of eastern Asia, and two low-growing boreal species, the Canadian and Eurasian dwarf cornels (or bunchberries), Cornus canadensis and Cornus suecica respectively.

Depending on botanical interpretation, the dogwoods are variously divided into one to nine genera or subgenera; a broadly inclusive genus Cornus is accepted here, with four subgenera.

A Christian legend of unknown origin proclaims that the cross used to crucify Jesus was constructed of dogwood.^[17] As the story goes, during the time ofJesus, the dogwood was larger and stronger than it is today and was the largest tree in the area of Jerusalem. After His Crucifixion, Jesus changed the plant to its current form: He shortened it and twisted its branches to assure an end to its use for the construction of crosses. He also transformed its inflorescenceinto a representation of the Crucifixion itself, with the four white bracts cross-shaped, which represent the four corners of the Cross, each bearing a rusty indentation as of a nail and the red stamens of the flower, represents Jesus' Crown of Thorns, and the clustered red fruit represent His Blood.^[18]

Korean Dogwood

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Korean Dogwood (Cornus walteri, Synonym : Cornus coreana Wangerin, Korean: 말채나무, malchaenamu) is adeciduous shrub or small tree 8–16 m tall, native to eastern Asia in Korea and adjacent northeastern China. It has opposite, simple leaves, 5–12 cm long.

The flowers are produced in inflorescences 6–8 cm diameter, each flower individually small and whitish. The flowering is in spring, after it leafs out. The fruit is a round, reddish-purple berry 2.5-3.5 cm diameter.

It is closely related to the European Common Dogwood (C. sanguinea).
