As a species, we’ve been collectively “parked” in apathy and hollow<br />

excuses long enough — far <strong>to</strong>o long, actually. And yet all hope is not lost …<br />

*Even without <strong>the</strong> help of our governments, WE CAN feed <strong>the</strong> hungry and<br />

house <strong>the</strong> homeless … Even without <strong>the</strong> support of our “leaders”, WE CAN clean<br />

up our neighborhoods, consume half of what we currently “need”, and recycle <strong>the</strong><br />

rest … And even without <strong>the</strong> law telling us <strong>to</strong> do so, WE CAN forgive those who<br />

trespass against us — and we can do so with acts of Kindness more than mumbled<br />

words.<br />

It’s not <strong>to</strong>o late, my Friends … We still have <strong>the</strong> power <strong>to</strong> change things, and<br />

change <strong>the</strong>m powerfully. We still have <strong>the</strong> ability <strong>to</strong> choose -- It’s just that<br />

courageously Caring for o<strong>the</strong>rs nearby is simply <strong>the</strong> only Good Choice that remains.<br />

LOVE chooses <strong>to</strong> Care, and LOVE knows that our Caring has <strong>to</strong> be<br />

radically active & purely selfless in order <strong>to</strong> BE.<br />

So … got LOVE?<br />

“It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare;<br />

it is because we do not dare that <strong>the</strong>y are difficult.” ~ Seneca<br />

“The only true Happiness comes<br />

<strong>from</strong> squandering ourselves for a purpose.” ~ William Cowper<br />

“It is only when we truly understand that we have a limited time on earth, and that we<br />

have no way of knowing when our time is up,<br />

that we will begin <strong>to</strong> live each day <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> fullest,<br />

as if it was <strong>the</strong> only one we had.” ~ Elizabeth Kuebler-Ross<br />
