For All Who Search

My ray of sunshine
rises above troubles, provides
comfort to those snared
by loneliness, or discouragement

I am succour to you, food
and shelter for those seekers
of truths. Perhaps I
can add strengths as my

paintbrush of experience
erases your woes,
colours over failures, salves
your inner self.

My flame of hope is a promise
of love and understanding,
my weapon is peace.

OurEcho is a FREE SERVICE dedicated to capturing and sharing the individual "bits and pieces" that define our local communities. It might be a bit of interesting local history, an old photograph, a special memory or just a funny story. We are particularly interested in those fascinating and intriguing events/people (both large and small) that we all encounter as part of the human experience. It might be something that happened recently or something passed down to you through your family. Our goal is to provide a forum for local communities to share who they are through their stories and photographs. When you take the time to share these reflection with others, you help us better understand you, the world we live in, and if we are lucky, they help us better understand ourselves.
