It&#8217;s the bottom of the ninth inning
A slender young woman comes up to bat
Is it Humanity?
I tell her, &#8220;You have to hit the ball as hard as you can, you have to do it now.
If you get to third base, head for home.&#8221;

So many comments seem to typically contain the hidden assumption that it takes some external force, person, situation, to change things, usually something despairingly powerless in the current state of affairs. I hear the despair.
I have become convinced that I have the power to transform the world into one that is free of domination.  I [...]]]></description>

In this context, peace is perceived as passive and defenseless, unlike the patriot who &#8220;vigorously supports their country (their patris, fatherland) and is prepared to defend [...]]]></description>

The media is focused on the drama and fear of power struggles.  The revolution of which I speak is not a power struggle, it has no single leader, and it’s occurring in small group conversations.  The ship of fear and control is slowly being abandoned.  We are about to witness a cultural leap into fearlessness, [...]]]></description>

There is a cynicism about applying the values of our founding fathers &#8212; equality, justice and the common defense &#8212; to ALL people on the planet.  Applying the Golden Rule is considered optional.  However, it is necessary for our survival. [...]]]></description>

In just a few words, my message to you is this:  if I can recover from a life of violence, you can do it.  If WE can do it, our entire culture can do it.
