A YouTube video posted by my blogging friend GP Cox touched my heart to the core. It made me break my Christmas pause I had announced earlier. It is my hope that if you agree with the message of peace you will also repost the video and thus help to spread its powerful message.

I saw this on GP’s site and loved it also. I did wish they’d included the lyrics the German soldier had been singing.

I saw this on his blog too! Thanks for sharing it, Peter. I believe there was a play about it too?

This was on my mind for the last days, Peter, and I am in two minds about it. I had heard about this before, but the film clips make it more real.
On the one hand I find it wonderful that they could have that moment of simple human togetherness, but on the other hand I cannot grasp how they could shoot at each other again the next day after this. But then, I have never been in a situation like that, of course.
