After looking through my Latin books, most of you tenses are correct! One of
the only words I would change is art. I looked up the word in the dictionary
and the best translation of art is ars. The only questionable tense is the
word create. In the phrase, you used creatus as a noun instead of a
imperative verb. You don't have to read the explanation of how to get the
imperative, you can just skip to the end. Take the infinitive case of the
verb creo, which  is creare, and take away the -re and add the letter t at
the end of crea-. The final result is...creat!

So the entire phrase is " Ars est vitae  creat pacem!

Subject: [Baren 21026] sheep shortage/first impressions 

responding to Carol -
  that  is sad, but not surprising, to know about the shortage
 of sheep in Afghanistan.
a good example of WHY peace is a basic human need
regardless of the politics that drive world  manipulation by governments
   is there an address that you
  or  your son might know of - to which we could send
 some "sheep" for Afghani folk ?
perhaps art is a "worthless "commodity in war- torn countries ,
 but emotional support  is always worth  doing.........
and thanks for yours in relation to my postcard

Sharri  -thank you for your comments re: year of Ram-peace
do they ever expain further.??
 glad my sheep got across the border
without incident
which reminds me to mention for those us us on severely limited budgets
i have found that my bare- naked post cards in this and other  exchanges
 are making it unscathed to all corners of the  USA and abroad
that translates to 51 x  .23= 11.73
as opposed to   51 x .37= 18.87
and more for overseas and envelopes/plastic covers

 Patti P-C--  i forgot to mention my first impressions on seeing
 your  blue orange black  postcard  of " the ram ascending a cliff face "-
i instantly thought of myself- as an Aries/Ram -
and my present position  in climbing the mountain of my life
 as your ram appears, i am determined to carry on to the top !
i will hang your card where it will encourage me everyday--  thank you

Dan-  every time  i try to get to that site
  i get  > a connection error occurred <

is it just me,- or ?

Gillyn,  I think we are very lucky to be able to express ourselves with our 
art.  It helps to express it and the people who see it know how we feel.  I 
would hate it if artists were not allowed that freedom. We wouldn't have 
those wonderful Goya Etchings and many more I can' think of at the moment.

Subject: [Baren 21030] political art 

If an artist's work is political and that is their oeuvre, should they 
censor themselves so that they don't offend anyone on the list?  What is 
the reason for art?

Actually Julio - I wasn't thinking specifically of politics but yes, 
keep any art, including political coming.  No pabulum for us.

Gillyin,

   You can, through Heifer International (www.heifer.org), send real live
sheep to Afghanistan. They are an organization that uses donations to buy
livestock and seed to send to areas in the world that need them. They also
help the people to raise and breed them, and pass some of the offspring on to
other needy people in the community.
