This week’s Flicker is from our Connect for Peace street happenings, with a quote from poet Publius Ovidius Naso, also known as Ovid (43 BC-17 AD): "Take a rest: a field that has rested gives a bountiful crop."

This is our last Flicker for 2016; we hope you found them inspiring throughout the year. We will be taking a rest and reflect on what comes next. As you may have noticed, we also took a rest from the blog a couple of months ago. We look forward to returning in the new year with bountiful offerings.
