Blogblast for Peace is coming June 4

Mimi, the Queen of Memes, has begun beating the drums for her semi-annual Blogblast for Peace. All are invited to join in -- tagged, if you must -- as this snippet from Ms. Mimi's post explains:


BlogBlast For Peace Meme ~ Join The Revolution

Here are the rules and the story.
Copy this into a post, ADD YOUR NAME to the bottom of the tag list and tag as many people as you'd like.

The Peace Globe project began in the fall of 2006 with a simple post from one blog, Mimi Writes. The post ignited a flame in the blogosphere. The flame became a passion. The passion became a movement. It amazingly traveled from blog to blog to blog across the globe. Bloggers wrote passionate articles on what peace means to them, along with the promise of three Latin words scribbled on a globe - Dona Nobis Pacem (Grant Us Peace) - branded with the integrity of their names or blog names. It was positively inspiring to watch. And it began to happen all over the world - from Singapore to China to Afghanistan to Brooklyn.

It was simple. And powerful.

In less than two weeks bloggers from all across the globe will blog for peace.
We will speak with one voice. One subject. One day.
Won't you join us?

Here's the most important part.
4. On June 4, 2008 DISPLAY YOUR GLOBE IN A POST. Title your post "Dona Nobis Pacem". This is important. The goal is for all blog post titles to say the same thing on the same day. Write about peace that day or simply fly your globe. Click

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE TAGGED TO PLAY.

Please consider passing this meme through the blogosphere.

This is not political -- or, perhaps it might be better to say, this transcends politics. I'm sure you will find examples, among this wide variety of blogs, of opinions with which you disagree -- no matter where you are on the political spectrum. Feel free to disagree strongly -- but not violently.

This is about peace.

(For the record, my prior peace globes may be found here (November 2006), here (June 2007), and here (November 2007)).
