"Peace is the beauty of life.
It is sunshine.
It is the smile of a child,
the love of a mother,
the joy of a father,
the togetherness of a family.
It is the advancement of man,
the victory of a just cause,
the triumph of truth.
Peace is all of these and more and more."
Menachem Begin
Prime Minister of Israel - 1977-1983
1978 Nobel Peace Prize
I am thankful for all these definitions of Peace from Menachem Begin, especially for the togetherness of family. This photo shows the beauty of life, the sunshine, the smile of a child, (our child, John, that is now an adult), the joy of a Father and the togetherness of a family and "more and more..." It is always such a pleasure to have our children join us at the beach. Al loved having John play with him in a gold tournament in August. This Thanksgiving Holiday we have the pleasure of having our two daughters and their families join us at the beach for the week. "Peace is...the togetherness of family."
