12.30.12 'Early, painful Death without Chemo, Now. Impossible to stop the vigil, Now. - My "Inconvenient Truth."' Loving
An "Inconvenient Truth," Get it? LOL!
Seriously, that IS my inconvenient truth. And yours? What is stopping You from giving 100% to avert eternal Ecocide for our next 200 billion kids?
I've learned quite a bit about staying warmer out here and have adjusted my procedures accordingly - carefully carry as much heat from my sleeping-bag body into my sweaters, coat, socks, each pant leg, mittens... as I dress in the morning. Second's count! If I'm too slow or lax, and it is a cold arm, or let, I put into cold clothing, it may take me all day to warm up again.
DON'T LET YOUR CLOTHES GET DAMP.
DON'T LET YOUR CLOTHES GET DAMP.
DON'T LET YOUR CLOTHES GET DAMP.
DON'T LET YOUR CLOTHES GET DAMP.
An entire day about 3 days ago, deeply cold, damp... caused me to do some learning.
Plus, my body is acclamating. Our physiology is amazing. Things physically change, after days. 2 weeks ago where 45 degrees felt realllllly cold, now it is 34 degrees.
And, keep out the wind, with a tarp, jackets, object to block the wind. Just 5 mph of wind drops the effective temperature 5-10 degrees.
The last 3 days or so have been near 100% prayer, meditation, reflection... for me. This is extremely unusual, but not unprecidented for me. The several weeks prior when I read and re-read the INDISPENSIBLE creators of Gandhi and MLK Jr - Leo Tolstoy's "Gospel," and "Kingdom of God...", it is like they were a near body-crushing (in a Good way) work-out for my nervous system, and it has taken at least these last 3 days for my nervous system to adjust, digest, grow, and recover. Astonishing. Am I recovered enough today to begin further study? Don't know yet.

Gang Rape Victim Dies: "Unless a seed falls to earth and dies it does not bear fruit." Jesus
Our bodies are nothing. NOTHING. God, I know how nuts, quaint, cute,
shallow, callous... that sounds. But it IS NOT; in the only time-frame that matters, Eternity, our bodies mean NOTHING, count for NOTHING, matter NOT AT ALL. Our Spirits, what Force, Loving, we can
be the conduit for, IS EVERYTHING.
With Luke watching, remember when Obi Wan lowered his sabre to allow Darth's blow?
Did Obi Wan cease to exist at that point? He got stronger. "Unless the
seed falls to earth and dies, it bears no fruit."
Now, that 'death,' (GIVING 100% TO OUR NEEDIEST) may take place over 80+ years, like Teresa of Calcutta, over 21 years like Rachel Corrie, 50 years like Diane Wilson, or `15 like Malala... but it is only in dying for our global neediest that we find Life, Joy, Peace of Heart - "dying for" meaning - giving 100%, every last breath, out of Love, for the Joy of it.

Dearest Dr. M -
Loving
A Joyous Christ-mass to you. How kind of you to email me.
If
anyone ever thinks of who, what hospital, clinic... might be willing to
try administering the chemo to me, without the totally understandable
requirement that I spend time in a residence, that I leave my vigil to
avert Ecocide now in its 7th month, that they enable me to remain at
the vigil except for the hours of treatment, and any medical
emergencies, please have them let me know, and I will attempt the
treatment. It is not my desire to lose years from my life, but it is
quite impossible for me to spend more than just the treatment hours away
from this 24/7 vigil.
Wishing you much Joy and Loving in your life,

12.27.12 Update. Bitter cold, damp. Pain free. Soooo clear.
Horribly cold today. Damp. Brutal wind. I'm still damp from the
rain
all-day yesterday. Haven't been able to get warm all day, tho this
afternoon isn't as bad. 36 was today's high. 30, tonight. 50 mph
gusts.
But the worst of the wind seems to be gone by tonight.
I
think a lot about what I'm doing. I inquire, in my imagination, of the
Creator, daily. Always the same answer. 'Are you
frickin kidding!??!!? Loving, don't you understand what is at
stake!?!?!? Your life is NOTHING. The suffering you are enduring now,
and headed toward when the new cancers grow, painful, ugly, deadly... IS
NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The future of your 204 billion kids is
being SLAUGHTERED!!!!!!!! Don't you understand?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Earth's
species, gone. Coastal living and access - gone. Benign weather -
gone. Plentiful food and water - gone. Plenty - GONE..... FOREVER!!!!
Absence of wars - GONE!!!!!!! You humans have hours, days, weeks to avert this Ecocide for your kids,
and grandkids..... And Loving, you ask me if you are on the correct
path?!!?!?!?!?'
And then the tears come - frustration, outrage, sadness, grief, fatigue, despair... DETERMINATION.

12.25.12. All cancer symptoms in remission. Tolstoy. In awe. Overwhelmed.
I continue to be free of symptoms of the cancer, for the first time in a year - what a gift. No pain. Little fatigue. Sure, the bowel is still erratic (uh, you don't wanna know about the exploding diarrhea moments ago, on Christ-mass, when EVERYTHING is closed downtown. Yup. You don't want to know. ROFL.), and the gut hurts, but it is healing!
MY SERVICE TO OUR NEEDIEST GOES UNIMPEDED THESE DAYS!!!! WHAT TOTAL JOY.
All of my hope is in Christ - Loving, the Spirit of Loving. NO!!! I'M SPEAKING NONE OF THE PAGAN, HEATHEN DREK, CRAP, FECES... IN WHICH WE'VE DROWN TO NEAR-DEATH JESUS' TEACHING THESE LAST 1800 YEARS. Peter was not Jesus. Paul was NOT Jesus. John was NOT Jesus. Isaiah was not Jesus.... God only knows the Popes are not Jesus, nor the pastors, Calvin, Luther....
JESUS was Jesus, and, for Christs Sake, He could speak for Himself!!! IF WE'D ONLY READ HIM, AND GIVE HIM IS DUE - TO LET HIM SPEAK FOR HIMSELF! This is what Tolstoy did. And Gandhi. And King, me....
About 11 years ago I first saw the common reference by Gandhi and King to Leo Tolstoy.
When I tracked it down I found that were it not for "The Kingdom of God is Within You," Tolstoy, we would not know the name Gandhi; he would never have developed from the young lawyer in England. I became aware that we might not know of MLK Jr. were it not for Tolstoy's "The Law of Love, and the Law of Violence," read by King when in Crozier Seminary as a young man.
And then, that we would not know the name Gandhi, and maybe not King but for the book "The Gospel in Brief," the researching of which saved the 50 year old Tolstoy from certain suicide, resurrecting his life to write the aforementioned books and more over the next 39+ years, based on his translation of Jesus' original Greek texts of the bible in which he found the only True Teaching as to how to Live the Joyful Life.
My recent medical treatment, surgery, recovery... is the first forced downtime I recall in a decade, and I've used it in large part to re-read, and re-read "The Gospel in Brief," and just now finishing again, "The Kingdom of God is Within You." Having yesterday cancelled the chemo so as not to divert time from the vigil 24/7 here at the Canadian Embassy - what time I have left will continue to focus on maintaining the vigil, and becoming as pure and knowledgeable a "channel" for Loving, and those paragons in History we've had, as I am able.
Overwhelming. Overwhelming. Overwhelming. If one has knowledge of Gandhi, his beliefs, his works, his acts, his achievements... then the reading of Chapters 9-12 in "The Kingdom..." can only unleash the realization - OF COURSE THE READING OF THIS CREATED GANDHI. Gandhi considered Tolstoy his Master, and obviously this is true. AND BOTH VIEWED JESUS, THE MAN, THE TEACHER, AS THE ULTIMATE MASTER, EVER ON EARTH.
"Kingdom" is NOT Tolstoy's greatest work - that is "The Gospel in Brief." Be careful. "The Kingdom..." can pull one away from this the most sublime, central, ESSENTIAL of Truths - Loving is God, the ONLY Force of Creation, That which Will Ultimately Prevail, that which is Strongest.... And tragically, THIS, in the end, IT DID TO GANDHI, PULLED HIM AWAY FROM THE CENTRALITY OF LOVING, AND IS WHY, I'M SURE, GANDHI IN THE END CONSIDERED HIS LIFE A FAILURE. But read it still. Just take care.
The fatal error for both Tolstoy (the greatest living human, in Gandhi's view) and for Gandhi was that "Kingdom's" utterly Divine Ch 9-12, indispensably insightful, fatally focus on the outcomes, the only Possible True Revolution - the replacement of violent government with the Kingdom of men Loving one another - Universal Family - the inevitable final form of man's way of interacting with others, in Tolstoy's view, in Gandhi's view, in Jesus' view. This may well be correct! But the farmer that spends her energies watching the shoots come up, and the fruit develop... is NEGLECTING THAT WHICH IS NECESSARY - the tending of the roots and the soil. LOVING is the entire Gospel, the entire Teaching, Individual, by Individual, by ..... THE ONLY REVOLUTION THAT CAN SUCCEED. EVER. EVER. "Kingdom" speaks of this breathtakingly; but too centrally, way too centrally it focuses on the outcome - the end of "pagan" government - government based on fleshly selfishness, violence.
Loving - is the work, the only work, the only place our individual (or collective) focus can be useful, with every breath - pre-emptive, and in return for EVERY Evil.
Be careful. Read "Kingdom." HURRY. BUT BE CAREFUL.
Loving is our business, our only business; from which all else will come.

To C., Pat., Doc M, and other friends, (and to myself! LOL), to whom I've yet to be sufficiently clear -
Principal Dawn, in Newtown. Nothing less than 100% was acceptable to her, or from her last week.
We have 200 billion children yet to be born, and 4 billion currently on earth. There is a 20% chance that it is already too late for them, that we've passed tipping points through our collective, criminal, CRIMINAL, PATHOLOGICAL, AFFLOHOLIC, collective inaction the last 40 years, 30 years, 20 years, 10 years, 4 years, 1 year, 11 months, 10 months... that the scientists have been categorically SCREAMING at us that allowing Green House Gas emissions is the slow motion equivalent of unleashing global thermo-nuclear war on planet Earth, on our children's future, FOREVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
But there is an 80% chance that if we act now, in the first months of 2013, they, our 204 billion children can be shared that unmitigated, eternal, perpetual, daily Hell.
There is not a snowballs chance in Hell that we will do so, that we fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles... will pass the Legislation to end the free, no cost to the dumper, dumping of Green House Gas, smothering the Garden of Eden, forever, that we've all enjoyed.
But as long as anyone stands, Diane Wilson, me, someone, anyone... a snowball's chance in hell for them, exists.
For reasons I don't question for a moment, chemo can not legally be administered to me, or anyone, without a residence, even a shelter, for reasons of legal, financial liability to the doctor, and the hospital.
And I cannot meet that requirement, because other than for 4-8 hours per 2 week period, or possible emergency care from time to time, I cannot be away from the vigil.
Principal Dawn, in Newtown. Nothing less than 100% was acceptable to her, or from her last week. This, for only her 600 children.
I've got 204 billion children. The current certainty is that the slim chance they have to avert Ecocide, torture, and death will be gone in months. Nothing less than 100% is possible from me now. There can be no chemo. There will be no chemo for me.

12.21.12 Back on Post. Dying of Cancer. Pray for me that I stop the Ecocide, First.
Back at the vigil, thank Goodness! Away for way toooo long.
High winds, wind chill 31 going down to 24 by morning. Brrrrr.
They haven't told me how long I have with the cancer. With the chemo - 50% chance of 5 more years. Without? Well, quite a bit less, I'll guess. And chemo looks quite out of the question because the vigil cannot stop, not now.
I went to the hospital immediately that I arrived in DC to cancel the tests and treatment that was scheduled. I first, however, met with a Patient Navigator, a fellow Christ-ian, that is not at all pleased with the prospects of me departing in body, quite so soon. I made clear to her that I am not refusing chemo. But, I'm unable to depart from the vigil.
There may be a way. Enough of a sliver of a chance that I haven't yet cancelled the tests and treatment meeting, as I'd planned. There is within 4 blocks of the vigil a set-aside portion of a much larger homeless shelter that is called the "infirmary." It may be that unlike shelters, it is sufficiently less restrictive that I could meet the legal requirements of the hospital, being sheltered, and still maintain the vigil. It would be pretty miserable, chemo, without support, but that is of no consequence. Christ-mass on Tuesday will slow down the ability to evaluate this option, but by mid to late week things should be clearer.
I have zero aversion to trading 3 to 20 years of my life for the next 6 month, to keep my body in the way, now, in these most precious, decisive, consequential days in all human history, here in front of the Embassy, the poster child for our criminally insane pursuit of future eradicating fossil fuels.
But I am NEVER called to be casual with my life, nor anyone elses. So this unexpected, last option, as unlikely as it is, will be given it's due consideration.
With much Joy and Relief to be back in Harm's Way,

YES!!! Pr. Obama Named Time's Person of the Year. ABC News
ABC News | - 1 hour ago |
From a shortlist that included a Pakistani teenager, the new leader of Egypt and a former president, Barack Obama has for the second time been named Time magazine's person of the year.
Cancer - Chemo? NOW? For me!?!? Out of the question - 12.19.12
Cancer - Chemo? NOW? For me!?!? Out of the question - 12.19.12
The choice:
1. This cell in my 204 billion cell body of humanity known as Loving, steps out of the battle to avert perpetual Ecocide in the final weeks in which it can be won ($250 / ton CO2e = $2 wreckage fee per $ of gas, 2X wreckage fee per $ of coal or natural gas electricity).
2. Accept a certain, roughly 10 year (3 to 20) shortening of my life by the cancer, and a less than pleasant end. (6 adults in Newtown, with unbounded Love, and Joy, just raced toward a much less generous deal, for not 204 billion kids, but just 600 kids. Bless their Hearts, eternally.)
Duh! WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING!?!?!? ROFL! We have hours, days, weeks, maybe months, to avert perpetual, unstoppable Ecocide by Green House Gasses, and I'm thinking about aborting the Canadian Embassy Vigil?!!?!?! Stepping off the battlefield for 6 months!?!?!?!? INSANITY! Not gunna happen. I expect to resume the vigil in DC, 24/7, this Friday, until the $250 / ton CO2e legislation is passed. Then I'll be open to accepting chemo. :-) Yes, it will be too late then. Couldn't matter less.
Here's the authoritative, definitive scientific, technological and economic Bottom Line, for those that care, in a 20 min nutshell; and I know of nowhere else you can find it nearly so succinctly (find the button, lower right, for full screen):
More, from a note to two fellow Unviolent Warriors (Diane Wilson, and another), yesterday morning:
I've within the last hour, prior to reading your email, had a fully unexpected, days earlier than I'd expected, Clarity. I share it with you, and only you at this point, because it pertains to what you've written below, but I expect to take some number of hours to ponder it deeply, and take one or several avenues I can see to 'Test' it, and see if it is correct, if indeed it is the Creator's, if it is Creation's, our Family's will for me. But I'm Deeply Pleased, Deeply Pleased at what I now see so far, this Clarity of how I am to proceed, this understanding; while respecting that you, others, most, all... may disagree with me.
I've spent the morning beginning to process what I learned yesterday of my cancer, and the debilitating 6 month treatment that would be required. Just the 5 or so waking hours since my return at midnight last night from DC to a kind household in Phila, has given me the time, space and place to make great strides toward clarity - including imagining the "ideal" arrangements for 6 months of Chemo that conceivably could be arranged:
1. Christ House - This could be the 6 months sabbatical I've needed to take myself to the next level of Understanding, that I could then share.
2. The Unity Health Care "infirmary" I've vaguely heard of down near the Embassy. If I imagine that it is available, it would give me the off-the-street lodging required by the Hospital, and it would give me a responsible way to accept the chemo - no sense accepting the care and expense, and dying from exposure or germs living on the street. And, those days I was functional, I could do the vigil, and access to online.
3. Three households in suburban Philly area that would Love to have me thru the chemo, and I'd have at least full access to fight via the internet. The Medicaid maybe/probably from DC wouldn't be transferable, but I can imagine for now that it could; update - I have just gotten off the phone with one of the Philly prospective hospitals and they suspect it could be arranged.
So I can now today "see" the ideal circumstances for chemo treatment.
The Blessed Clarity that has come to me, after seeing these options to which I was blind yesterday, the clarity is - it is impossible to abandon the vigil at this time. If our next 204 billion are to be saved it will be in Loving, all out, nothing held back, Unviolent Battle by every one of us possible, NOW, not 7 months from now.
Due to the unimaginable kindness and goodness of my medical care up until now (Doc Cardile at Unity, Christ House, Howard U) I've been given months more ability to contribute, NOW. THANK YOU! I'm currently still healing, yet I'm in practically no pain, for the first time in a year. I have little reason to believe that in the next 3-9 months I'll have symptoms cropping up that will impair my ability to contribute just as I have from the vigil, online, etc; and maybe my ability to contribute will be 2 or three times that long. I've healed rapidly from the Nov 30th surgery. I was physically prepared, if barely, to resume the vigil last night, but the treatment facts given me yesterday - 2 tumors, not one, pretty aggressive cancer, of needing 6 MONTHS debilitating chemo, for starters, life expectancy by 5 years of 50-60%... just was so massively new for me I needed space to ponder, and hence the retreat to Philly.
With immense Joy, my guess
is that as soon as Friday, now that my feet are back on the ground, I'll
give notice that I will forgo the chemo, and resume the DC vigil immediately. LOL -
For a day, or several weeks, the arrangements for my Beloved Pr.
Obama's inauguration may force me away from Penn Ave, his route, back to Phila, for a few days or weeks, but that is no
matter.
This
is no time for chemo. This is the time when we win, or lose, for our 204 billion kids. There is no July 2012. There's only... NOW.
I'm quite sure of all this for me now, but I'll continue for some hours to deeply ponder and Test this.

***** URGENT: 'Regarding Evil, Jesus is fundamentally mis-understood.' Loving.
Bottom Line:
The key strategic import, for the Unviolent Warrior, by whatever name is: Clearly conceive, construct, and carry out any and every "action" against evil, EXPLICITLY as Delivering Love, usually brutally Tough, to the Target. Will doing so radically and obviously change the characteristics and apparent nature of all actions? No, not "obviously." But Fundamentally. Is it "obvious" a bomb carrying a nuclear device, vs one that carries something else? Not to me. But it is fundamentally different in Truth and impact, none the less.
Were I to do another Hunger Strike, I would need to understand it as explicitly as I could as a delivery of Love to the target. I don't think I've ever thought of it in that way. If I did so, that would directly alter everything, including my Communication, Spirit, interactions, intended targets.... and I'm Certain it would make any future Hunger Strikes of Vastly more promise.
For now, I probably can't be more clear, or specific, tho I'll keep trying. :-)
Continuing...
The following may be obvious for years, to you, but it is massively new, Transformative Clarity, to me.
Through the undeserved Grace of the Creator, the Forces of Creation, my inklings of how to defeat Evil, so called nonviolence, what better is called Unviolent Warfare, Waging Love... has taken a fundamental leap for me in recent weeks, the greatest leap in maybe a decade, despite my daily practice and study of the issue all that time.
Surely Gandhi is the father of what the best understand as any worthwhile ideas of unviolent warfare these last 70 years or so. Many don't know who Gandhi's primary source of wisdom, Teaching, was. Jesus, by all accounts, as Jesus was discovered to Gandhi by the writings of Leo Tolstoy - "The Kingdom of God is Within You," in particular, and then many years of personal correspondence with Tolstoy, who Gandhi considered the greatest living example of Nonviolence (Unviolent Warfare).
Well, much of the time I had when able to focus during the recent 2 weeks of recovery from surgery has been a re-immersion in those same Tolstoy writings that created Gandhi.
Frankly, what I learned through this most recent re-study of these Tolstoy writings is NOT what Tolstoy concluded about Jesus teaching. I'm certain that Tolstoy got it wrong, or rather, that he understandably, did not take what he saw through all the way to it's correct end. I say this by way of full disclosure, and so as not to lay at Tolstoy's feet the following. I do not say this to diminish Tolstoy's writings on Jesus, writings that I consider to be the most important works yet available to man - that if deeply understood by thousands, or millions, would more than anything else I can see, Save humanity from the Ecocide and/or larger Technocice that is otherwise in the final stages of dooming all future humans to Earth as Living Hell. ("The Kingdom of God is Within You," "The Gospel in Brief," "The Law of Love and the Law of Violence," these three in particular."
What Tolstoy seems to say as Jesus most central and important point of all, of everything he taught and lived is that - The #1 Path to Humanity, Goodness, Personal Joy, Collective Heaven on Earth... the true, concrete victory over Evil is - DO NOT RESIST EVIL.
As far as it goes, this is patently wrong, incorrect, absurd, WRONG. And let me be clear again, I view Tolstoy as probably the most important intellect for Humanity since Jesus himself.
The shooter in Newtown should not have been stopped? Should not have been resisted? OBVIOUSLY, "Do not resist evil" is NOT what Jesus meant. OBVIOUSLY. Even in Tolstoy's writing:
* Jesus fashioned a whip and drove the money changers from the temple.
* Told the Apostles to secure swords, tho immediately admonished Peter for using one.
* Interposed himself, opposing the evil of those that would have stoned the woman....
And Gandhi's actions, based on Tolstoy's rendering's of Jesus' teachings, too, imply a perception that on it's face Tolstoy, and today's so called proponents of "non-violence" (willful "cowards" in my view, as I've written)... got it totally wrong.
Clearly what Jesus taught was NOT - Do not resist Evil - but rather -
A. RESIST EVIL!!! OF COURSE!!!! HOWEVER, DO NOT RESIST EVIL... NEVER, NEVER, NEVER...WITH EVIL!!!!!! DO NOT RETURN, DO NOT RETURN, DO NOT RETURN... Evil for Evil!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND FURTHER -
B. RETURN GOOD, RETURN GOOD, RETURN GOOD... FOR EVIL; WHEN EVIL IS DONE TO YOU YOU, OR TO ANY OF OUR GLOBAL NEEDIEST FAMILY, OR TO ANYONE, OR TO ANY OF CREATION !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is what Jesus meant, and demonstrated throughout his life; and so with Gandhi, Diane Wilson, Rachel Corrie, MLK Jr.... AND THE FIRST RESPONDERS IN NEWTOWN!!!!! Huh, most would say! They used Violence! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Violence is that which VIOLATES the Good, what is Right, Loving. YES, had the first responders acted out of Hate, intending do the Evil of Harming.... But no reports indicate this! They were putting their own Lives in the way, for GOOD. If I had been the crazed Lanza, SHOOT ME! For Good's sake, STOP ME! For LOVING's SAKE, SHOOT ME. PLEASE!!!!!! Right????? BUT OUT OF LOVE, COMPASSION, UNDERSTANDING... INCLUDING FOR ME AS LANZA, THE CRAZED KILLER!....
Despite a lifetime, and most intensely, more than a decade now of single-minded study and practice of Unviolent Warfare, I didn't see this until just 2 weeks go, deeply pondering Tolstoy's writing. This opens up huge avenues for me to refine approaches that I've taken, or considered; but now refined with what I can imagine will be Geometrically more hopeful prospects of success, than anything I've yet understood!!!!
This is the stuff of ALL, ALL, ALL... Unviolent, Nonviolent Actions: LOVING BOMBS. CARPET BOMBING WITH WEAPONS, WITH RESPONSES, OF 'TOUGH,' OR NOT-TOUGH LOVING, AS THE SITUATION DEMANDS. PERIOD. PERIOD. PERIOD. (Think cancelling out anti-matter with a sufficient amount of matter!)
Of course there is no expectation that any one such 'Loving Bomb' will suffice. Duh. But that it is vastly more the correct type of, characteristic of weapon, of response, of action than I've yet understood to become, to deliver... YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now, Jesus Gospel is this, His Teaching is this as I've recently shared - ***** vlog 'May I Teach You Jesus' Gospel? I 'get it' now.' Loving. Of the two categories of Spirit (psycholgically, neurologically speaking) within us, the Spirit of Loving is our True, DNA intended, Spirit to be dominant, ALWAYS, EVERY SECOND, over the alternative Spirit of Flesh (Selfishness); purely for reasons of optimal capacity, optimal adaptivity for the individual, and optimal adaptivity for the species, under EVERY, EVERY... circumstance; every breath, every second. Silly? This is just EXACTLY to say that in every instance, every breath, every second it is more adaptive, more advantageous for:
* Sanity (Loving) to Reign over Insanity (Loving being Clinical Sanity; Selfishness being Clinical Insanity - anti-social characteristics, even if our societal norms don't so say).
* Maximal INTELLIGENCE (Heart) to Reign over lower intelligence (Flesh/Head).
* Maximal VISION, INCLUSIVENESS of VISION (Loving, Solidarity, Brotherhood, Compassion, Understanding) to Reign over Narrowness of Vision (Animosity, Hatred, Ignorance of, Divorce from, Lack-of-Understanding of).
This new understanding will inform all of my future planning and actions; as I hope it has, and does, yours.
Pre-Emptive, and Re-active LOVING - Waging the Toughest Imaginable, most Relentless, NEVER Ceasing War of Loving against all evil, against EVERY evil act, EVERY evil circumstance, for the INFINITE JOY and HOPE of it, and for the certain, absolute Victory that only such weapons can and would bring.
