Any action taken from pride or greed rarely leads to peace; it often brings more harm to those already suffering under oppression. On the morning of February 28, 2022 , I had a dream that referenced Japan and an attack on a harbor. While this immediately brought to mind the historical events of Pearl Harbor , I did not interpret it as a literal prediction. Instead, it seemed like a symbolic warning...an invitation to reflect.
