“Martin Luther King said Gandhi was the first person in human history to take the “Love Ethic” beyond meer personal interaction so that it became a broad scale social force for Good. That’s what we need. Terrorism is not some top down institution, it is an outgrowth of an impulsive hate by which hate has been turned into a broad scale political force. The only way we will transcend that, is to turn love into a broad scale social and political force.” ~Marianne Williamson

  1. True words. But what does this mean for us all?
    That we would go down the streets. We all. Down to the streets and say “No”.
    “No” to what happens in the Ukraine.
    “No” to what happens in Egypt.
    “No” to what happens in our neighborhoods.
    Are you ready to say “no”?
    Do you want to say “No”?

    Personally I am in this peculiar situation that I would really like to say “no” … to bring up this necessary change. But shall I start alone? Shall I go down to the streets alone?
    I feel like I am not brave enough. It is so difficult to stand in front of a crowd and say something that might provoke annoyance because my word could mean that other must change.
    … aaa you know what I mean?
