Today, my post is simply a sharing of a press release issued by the United Centers for Spiritual Living yesterday regarding the controversy in the moderate Islamic group’s intention to build a mosque a few blocks from Ground Zero in New York.  This public proclamation by Dr Kathy Hearn is so compelling that I wanted to bring [...]

That damn shadow came out again this week.  I hate it when that happens.  I work on it and work on it and still it raises its ugly head when I least expect it. Oh, it started innocently enough.  I commented on a friend’ s Facebook posting.  My simple intent was to remark on what [...]

Regretfully, there’s a strong undercurrent of fear percolating in a vocal minority of Americans.  I don’t want to feed it, the media is already doing a good job of that, but I do want to acknowledge it so we can consciously make a higher choice. The latest incident: Kentucky Senatorial candidate Rand Paul states that [...]

Today some personal commentary regarding the Gulf Coast oil spill with an evolutionary eye towards what lessons we can take from this event to move us to a positive future.  I recognize that we don’t realize yet just how catastrophic this disaster might end up being, but I don’t think it’s too soon to start [...]
