A simple message of hope and peace: Rossella Urru

PEACE
Peace is like love
Without peace,
It’s a broken winged bird

Peace starts with you and me
Peace is Joy, Love, Kindness
Peace is Freedom
Peace is for you and me

Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.

Siamo sempre con te. Non mollare. Forza Rossella.
