May all the lovers of the world unite under the common cause of ending the genocide in Gaza. I feel their pain so deeply. We are all ONE.
Great words of wisdom from Marshall Rosenberg, who worked in the most volatile areas of the world and is the creator of Nonviolent Communication. Love this guy!
“We can walk through the darkest night with the radiant conviction that all things work together for the good.” ~Martin Luther King Jr.
“The Elders say the men should look at women in a sacred way. The men should never put women down or shame them in any way. When we have problems, we should seek their counsel. We should share with them openly. A woman has intuitive thought. She has access to another system of knowledge that few men develop. She can help us understand. We must treat her in a good way.” ~Author unknown
“My problem is that the U.S. government wants us to be dumb. They’re not interested in a nation of smart, observant, rational people. They want us to be knee-jerk fools who ooh and aah at the TV and believe everything we hear, “no way!” like some forever 12-year olds who have no ability to think for ourselves, mold our own lives, allow ourselves to be controlled and directed by the government, which is not what America is about. We began this country by fighting against the tyranny of the King, we fought to make up our own lives, live how we want. America is the single greatest collection of heroes and intellectuals and builders the world has ever seen. We created the modern world, electricity, cars, factories, TV, radio, Internet, computers, cell phones, etc… And now our government wants to turn us into Honey Boo-Boo’s. Who’s going to build the future if we all turn into moronic hoax-believers? I’m confident that the government won’t win, that intelligent people will not be swayed, that brain power will overcome the idiot boxes of TV.” ~Anon
“When you understand, that what you’re telling is just a story. It isn’t happening anymore. When you realize the story you’re telling is just words, when you can just crumble up and throw your past in the trashcan, then we’ll figure out who you’re going to be.” ~ Chuck Palahniuk
“There are scores of people waiting for someone just like us to come along; people who will appreciate our compassion, our encouragement, who will need our unique talents. Someone who will live a happier life merely because we took the time to share what we had to give.” ~ Leo Buscaglia
“The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.” ~ Alan Watts
“Not till your thoughts cease all their branching here and there, not till you abandon all thoughts of seeking for something, not till your mind is motionless as wood or stone, will you be on the right road to the Gate.” ~Huang Po
