>>>KAYSVILLE/WEST JORDAN –La Navidad casi esta aquí. Para muchos esta época del año significa celebraciones, reuniones y fiestas familiares, con los amigos y en los lugares de trabajo, regalos, paz, amor, compartir, juguetes, sonrisas… pero no todas las personas viven la Navidad de la misma manera.
>>>Our world seems enthralled with power inasmuch as nations and individuals are often locked in fierce struggles to exert their will. Nations use military power to achieve their ends even when, as in the Korean Peninsula, they threaten the stability of the entire world. Political parties use the power of communication, especially on the Internet, as they vie for control in the chambers of government. And more and more, wealthy candidates use the power of money to get elected to political office. Corporations use their wealth and prestige to influence public opinion and ultimately, to make a profit. Even on a smaller scale, we see the use of power to control, to manipulate or to influence in the home, on the playground and in the workplace, evidenced in domestic violence, bullying at school and ruthless tactics to get promoted. Without a doubt, our world is constantly caught up in power struggles that leave their mark on the faces of countless millions and on the face of the earth itself.
