Let Peace Prevail!

 This islander reminds us to pray continuously for peace throughout the world.  He walks throughout the city slowly (this day, at the local market) and sings as a cantor, "Let peace, prevail, everywhere, in the country, of Tajikistan!"  He then speaks the chant softly "Everywhere, in the country of Tajikistan."  Contemplatively he works his way through all of the countries of the world.  We heard him sing through Tanzania, Thailand, Timor-Leste, Togo, Tokelau, Tonga, Trinidad and Tobago, Tromelin Island, Tunisia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Turks and Caicos, Tuvalu...    good man, what is your name and what is your story?  Blessed are the peacemakers...
