Ailsa, at wheresmybackpack, has suggested a tribute to the late Nelson Mandela, with a post depicted symbols. She mentioned two that we display a great deal of in our homes. Peace and Freedom. When I downloaded the photos, I thought “why doesn’t my husband tell me to STOP!” Although I don’t think all peace symbols are equal, and I don’t buy every one I see, I didn’t realize how many I have. But then, could there ever be enough PEACE?
Some of my collection of symbols…
Another reason I suppose my husband doesn’t complain is (first of all he’s so not a complainer, and second of all) because he has a collection or two of his own.
Jeff’s collection – Freedom…

Great collections, can never have too much peace or freedom 🙂
You got that right! Thanks.
It’s your thing. You can’t stop your thing. That’s why it’s a thing….
LOL

What a lot of peace symbols you have, Gemma. I would love to visit, and sip a chai from one of your mugs. 🙂
You are more than welcome. Some are strictly coffee. Some tea. I will put one aside. 🙂
CND one of favourites from past hippy days right up to now. 😉
I’m with your, Gerry!
Awesome! Or I should say “Groovy!”
Both! Thanks, Dawn. Far Out!
I almost said that. lol
Haha! I know that. 🙂
There can never ever be enough peace and freedom in this world 😍
Jeff! I know you! Thanks, hon. ❤️
Freddom and peace, that is what most of us hope for in this world, that is what the world needs.
Really really needs.
Peace out!

I love this blog. I still have no idea what to do for this challenge.
Something that symbolizes energy. That’s what I think when I think of you. Very zen and exuding an aura of positive energy and strength.
Just sayin’.
Very cool idea! I will have to think about that.
😉
I don’t have a single peace symbol! I must be warped! 😦
No, people would probably say (no I’m sure they say) I am. 😉
