Lisa is hosting Prosery Monday in the dVerse Pub ~ her instructions: use this line "to hurt is to steal" from the song 'Mysterious Ways' ~ one of the tracks included on U2's Achtung Baby album!

To hurt is to steal. In today's world, dreams are being stolen. Innocence slips through cracks in drywall, as children sleep in blue-lit bedrooms.
It vanishes as lovers intertwine beneath soft sheets, believing they are safe. It's taken as a mother births her child, not knowing the world it enters is already wounded.
Dreams are hijacked during barbecue Sundays, cubicle Mondays, at altars and traffic stops, on playgrounds and in prisons, countries fighting against each other.
And still we dance. We sing. We pray. We hope. Is there an answer? Maybe, but it doesn't come cheap and it demands truth. Folks, are we losing what we do not know how to restore?
