An Open Letter to President Donald Trump
We're standing before a powerful moment in history for this country. But when we stop to understand the power and responsibility we have as a nation for leadership of the global community, it is not too far reaching to say this is a powerful moment for the future of the species - and the planet. We have so many tools at our disposal but it seems like the only one we've been picking up is a hammer. And everything around us is getting nailed. In this land where the binary option has been put in our face, it's time for haters to hate and leaders to lead. We just have to decide to which group we will be true.

And Now We Are Six What were you born to do? Who have you come here to be? And have you gone through that becoming? Because some people haven't. Some people never wind up as the person they were meant to be... even if they spend a lifetime wanting that becoming to take hold of them. Some people remain too focused on what it's like to be the prey rather than what it's like to be the prayer. This is a service for those who feel called to something great and who go after it, despite the danger. |
