Live for Love
We all have things we are grateful for naturally, without anyone telling us we have to be. Gratitude has nothing to do with owing anybody anything. Gratitude that is obligatory is a hideous lie. Obligatory gratitude is actually shame. Shame on you for needing love. Shame on you for demanding respect. I have no use…

Ground in Gratitude
For most, just the fact of being alive (I mean bottom line still breathing) has intrinsic worth. Shall we run with this assumption? Anyone here want to die? I certainly don’t.

Difficult Truth
We dwell in a false holy, and this was used as a method of self preservation whenever a spiritual path sought to survive in the face of violent public opposition.

You Believe Things
It’s been said that we can’t solve a problem in the same state of mind we become aware of it in. Recent science is even backing this up. The way we normally think about things, we just practice and reinforce the problems that set us off in the first place. We welcome the vandals of…
