Peace on Earth
 I am taking the time today to  wish peace on Earth. To wish the end of all wars, wherever they are. It saddens me to see Russia invading Ukraine.  I just wanted to share that the theme music of Alive was composed last year  by an Ukranian musician. Tim Moor  did that to celebrate the 30 years of independence of Ukraine. I hope that we all will take a moment of reflection here: Peace on Earth.Theme music created by Tim Moor.
