Our purpose – our mission – our goal – is to spread love. All else is illusion. Be a part of the effort, not the ambivalence and resistance.

It is essential to deal calmly and decisively when confronted with a disquieting, unanticipated challenge. The physiologic and emotional consequence of being jarred by the unexpected can be severe, particularly if forced to deal with overly aggressive and hostile personalities. Learning to de-stress and take things in stride, no matter the harshness or provocation, serves to stabilize and detoxify the situation.

Consider what motivates a Gandhi, or a Mother Teresa, or a Dalai Lama – it is the ability to see, and reach, beyond self – to recognize the oneness of humanity, and the futility of continuously striving to satisfy the insatiable appetite for personal consumption – invariably at the expense of the less able. The survival of life as we know it rests on creating a new and more compassionate paradigm – one that acknowledges and supports the interdependence of all things – that rejects the cruel and inhumane notion that might makes right, that only the fittest deserve to survive.

Acknowledging womanhood for the primary and indispensable role it plays in the survival of the human race is essential. Despite patriarchal dominance and influence in society, evidenced by continued uneven and discriminatory treatment of the fairer sex in every arena, truth and reality is that the female deserves, and has earned, more than lip service for equality, if not primacy. Quite simply, not a single, strapping, politically powerful, economically affluent member of the male species would even exist without a mother. To the extent that religious edict and historical custom and practice combine to continue to reinforce the fiction that man is somehow superior to woman, and therefore more entitled, it is high time to come into the Twenty First Century and smell the roses.
Happy Mothers Day, Ladies!

The decision – and it is a decision - to stop consuming unhealthy foods and products is a matter of self love. A sugar rush is invariably followed by a severe mood swing; mind altering substances invariably rob one of self control. In either case, the pain is self inflicted. Making good and healthy choices is part of opting for intentionally positive and consciously aware living. Love, MA – 5/11/’12
