Friends, I owe it to us all, I owe it to the Future, to be really clear. I consider my harshness out of extreme tough love, a virtue. My virtue? A virtue. I'm at War. I am at all out War for the future of all creation. How would you expect a warrior, me, or anyone, to be? What kind of intensity? What kind of dedication? What kind of devotion? What kind of Demands on them self? What kind of seriousness of purpose, Focus? What kind of personal risk? What kind of personal pain? A soldier in the midst of a firefight, you do not expect harshness of such an individual? Would you not question , Wonder at, have doubts about, a soldier in the midst of a firefight that was unwilling, and never seen to be, extremely profoundly harsh even toward beloved fellow soldiers? I sure the f*** would. I consider myself a soldier though a soldier of peace, as did Gandhi before me. I say again, until we see millions of soldiers, soldiers, soldiers, soldiers ... of Peace there is not a f****** shred of Hope. Millions, millions, millions, millions.... I can't be Millions. But I will be one. If you are not or cannot become one who Embraces what I'm saying you probably should detach from me for your own peace of mind and so that we use each other's time well and do not misuse it.

***** As I wrote the other day I feel like I've taken yet another huge step in the direction of understanding that the Empire is unstoppably disintegrating, hence the world we have known is disintegrating. And that is truly a blessing. The suffering will be such as the world has not yet seen but it is absolutely necessary. The only thing I'm pretty sure of is that we will be less crushing on creation as it unfolds. Whether a better Humanity emerges on the other side I don't know. Whether enough Humanity awakens sooner and non-violently takes charge of deliberately dismantling the Empire that is crushing everything remains to be seen, profoundly unlikely, but oh that would be building a better future. One thing for sure is that those of us who are loving will learn more everyday about how to be living with as little destruction created by ourselves as possible. There is much joy in that. This increasing Clarity is very helpful step for me. But it still leaves me to adjust to how then I am to be loving to the world. I'm working on it. I feel that it is moving me back in the direction of devoting my life to the one in a million of my sisters and brothers that are profoundly and quite purely simply agents of loving, Insanely Humane (INSHE) Warriors. Wagers of Loving. They are the healthy cells and helping them grow and infect others is maybe the only positive thing that I see to do. And trying to be one of them. Loving is quite literally the only thing that I value. And such people invariably devote their very being to getting in the way of the harm being done to the most powerless, the most innocent, the most victimized, the most abused... The Palestinians and others. That's where my family is. That is where I find them. In the way of the greatest harm. That is the only place that I feel at home.

***** What I feel most certain of is that cataclysmic change as Earth has never seen before is upon us. Most centrally it is the disintegration of the corporate economic Elite ( we the 10% White colonialist ) Empire of insane materialism Crashing Down as Mother Earth refuses to support it any longer. As Mother Earth refuses to Shield us from our own self-destruction. At the moment I am repulsed by my inclination to try and Stave off this disintegration , repulsed because the notion of such an attempt is disgustingly futile, and because it would be to interfere with a necessary good, the dismantling of the empire that is destroying everything. But I am drawn to the notion that by way of metaphor I think of as the Jedi that we know from the movies. Individuals who had learned to become powerful channels of the force, loving, Wagers of Loving , that somehow were instrumental in allowing some measure of decency to continued among creatures. I am drawn to try and be such a Jedi, a warrior, an Insanely Humane Warrior , an INSHE Warrior and thereby, and through additional effort, to try and encourage and Foster others to do the same. What I know remains unclear within me is to what degree such Warriors can help work the miracle of humans taking the initiative in this matter of dismantling the Empire. This would be a miracle, an incredible Mercy, the potential birth of Heaven on Earth , and the only merciful way out. I see not a shadow of this happening. But I recognize it as the only major hope.

**** Your help is welcome. Suggestions, recommendations? The final version of this will be my new every waking second uniform on shirt, jacket, etc. Please share with me any strong comments you have. Thank you. I am NOT meaning for this to be cute, pretty, catchy.... I am meaning for it to be the best expression of the essential truths of human sanity, humanity, Joy and Salvation from this deadly 2016 world as lived and taught by Jesus and the other great laborers of love throughout history, that I have yet learned to see and express, & I think it's getting pretty close. This has come to me in pieces, in the middle of the night, over the last few days. I am deeply moved and grateful.

It is the example of others lives that has moved my life back in the direction of sanity, humanity, compassion, empathy, decency... the self into which we are all born. The lives of those like Eleanor Roosevelt, Malala, Teresa of Calcutta, Alice Paul, Dorothy Day, Gandhi, Martin Luther King jr.... It is only then that their words have helped me understand how to accomplish that move. "Example is not the major thing in influencing people. It is the only thing." Albert Schweitzer

The Status Quo Changes only when it Changes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReoKGbVK6p0
Well sort of, I can
just barely see beyond the chicken and egg aspect of this. But I can see a little bit beyond.
The status quo is
what we are. Whatever age we are, our
life up until that point has been finding our place in the way things are. We’re an information system; we’re a computer
system, that’s what our nervous system is, and it has hardware, it has firmware,
it has software, and whoever you are at this instant in time you are that many
years and seconds of your life in programming a way to be. Some of its now in hardware, that's pretty
difficult to change. Some of it is in
software that's integrated with that hardware; that's difficult to change. And a little piece of it is easy to change, not
much of it is easy to change.
So any and every
status quo, any threat to the status quo, confronts you or anyone, with the prospect
of throwing out your way of being, your way of existing, your way of living,
your way of having pleasure, your way of maybe finding joy; probably not joy,
so rare in our lives in this society.
I only glimpsed this
morning this piece of it - that status quo is a paradigm, or it's like a
paradigm - the capacity of our mind to make sense of reality a certain way. Sometimes that’s shown to us with pictures –
have you ever seen the one that is the old woman and the young woman; and when
someone's first shown it, they’ll see either the old woman or the young woman;
but over time, minutes, tens of minutes, particularly with coaching they can
switch between views of the same picture without touching it, without moving
it. It’s a capacity of the mind, it snaps
things into place. It may not be the
only snapping that's possible.
Well a fundamental
change in the status quo such as, ‘of course women should have the right to
vote,’ has that snapping aspect to it. It's not only what happens externally, it’s
what happens within us. And when it
happens that quickly, it's not painful, but the prospect of it to the nervous
system is excruciating, such that all but one 1 million run from it, and even
kill to prevent it.
So the status quo
doesn't change until the status quo changes.
30 kids are getting on a bus to their expected death, the freedom rides
to Mississippi, their nervous systems already snapped into the new status quo.
They saw and were living that they became of a different status quo. ‘No, we don't sit in a separate waiting room.’ But their being it, their living it snapped
ultimately millions of onlookers into the new status quo, and the status quo
changed for millions almost instantly. Revolutionaries in Tahrir square
provoked the same response within days.
The status quo for the whole world switched in days from, ‘yes, Mubarak
heads the country,’ to ‘No, Mubarak can't head the country anymore.’ The status quo doesn't change until the
status quo changes.
And when the status quo
changes there is an, ‘ahhhhh, thank goodness,’ among millions who instants
before that paradigm being shifted for them, would kill to prevent it from shifting.
So there's something
to those that cause that paradigm shift.
They go right to the brink of death, by giving every thing they have,
not almost everything, everything they have for life in the status quo to be
replaced, possibly including their own lives, that it causes enough onlookers
to vicariously go to the same place, the same threshold of willingness to give. And by standing at that threshold, without
knowing it, there is the possibility of them getting instantaneously and
painlessly and joyfully sucked through.
It's a hacking past the defenses of conservatism; it's so breathtaking,
the courage of those 30 freedom riders, the courage of those 200 women in
prison for women’s suffrage, that it literally sucks the healthier of those
onlookers breathlessly to the brink, to the vortex, and sometimes they get
sucked through, instantaneously. ‘Oh, I
see the young woman now; it isn't just the old woman, the mature woman in that
picture.’
If the next 200
billion children will have a future other than hell on earth, a handful of
people will go to that vortex themselves, and thereby create the conditions for
that breathless, vicarious following, by much larger numbers, such that all
could instantaneously, joyfully, gratefully and unwittingly get sucked through. Or it won't happen.

vid 'My Family is those waging their Being, their Lives for Humanity. Yours too.' sLoving
Note: Text is updated beyond the vid.
'My Family is those waging their Being, their
Lives for Humanity. Yours too.' sLoving
My family is those waging their lives, waging
their very being, for humanity, the Rachel Corey's, the Christ Jesus' the
Gandhi’s, the King’s, the Dianne Wilsons...Maybe some of those- no definitely
some of the Jews, the real Jews, using their bodies as human shields between the
vile, hideous, subhuman Israeli settlers and the Palestinian farmers whose
orchards they’re trying to destroy and whose bodies they're trying to kill.
That's my family.
I'm brother and sister to all, I love all,
but my Family, those with whom I am kin, are those waging their lives for our
global neediest, that's with whom I identify, that's with whom I feel a kinship,
that's with whom I feel a common bond of species.
I love all, but my family is those waging
their lives, their very being, their every breath, for the well-being of
humanity. I have two, and probably three, maybe four in my life immediately-no,
I have one less than that in my life. One, for reasons I may or may not
understand, has estranged from me, Dianne Wilson, but that doesn't make her any
less my family, I don't know what I am to her, but she's my Family, my kin, she
wages every breath for the betterment of humanity - Women in Texas jails, Texas
workers maimed by pollution, the people of Bhopal, for whom she has hunger
struck, the fish in the ocean, the gulf….
My sister SC wages a much more private war
for humanity, but it includes being the one person in my radical rebirth that
has been an unshakable rock and support since the beginning, literally saving my
life on one or more occasions.
And my sister in Christ, Hope, who tho
hearing a very different king of call than I, more and more completely is a
fearless warrior for the victory of global Love over the greed that is in the
final stages of killing us.
And John and Brian with Occupy DC. I see them blossoming toward being our
Family. In one case burn-out, in the
other case the need to fully surmount a childhood that included blessings, but
massive trauma also. Will they make
it? I pray, for them, for us all. I’m deeply admiring of their efforts, and
full of prayer that they prevail.
And maybe, hopefully, there are others
emerging, but it is far from clear to me.
But I pray, and use my final hours to be a prayer that they make it. We’re doomed unless they and those like them
make it.
And these people that are my Family, my Kin
are your true Family. They wage their lives, they wage their very being, for
you. That's family.
As a youth, the man Jesus who I've always
loved, my brain exploded with his speaking to those who said 'Your Mother and
your brothers outside are outside', to which he responded "MY mother and my
brothers are those who do the Creator's will." But he was right, of course.
Jesus was virtually always correct. Our family, yours and mine, are those that
truly love us and love is seen nowhere except in what we do and those who truly
love us are waging every breath, their entire being, their entire life against
the needless suffering, against the horrors, and in this case against the
impending environmental Armageddon for the next 2,000 generations.
The one, longest and clearest member in my family, in my life, is my beloved
sister SC who has been unfailingly supportive of my work, agreeing with it
sometimes disagreeing, but unfailingly, courageously supportive of my work these
last 13 years and has literally nourished me back to life on at least one and
maybe multiple occasions. What a gift she is, what a joy she is.
This may change. The numbers may grow. Jesus' Family was zero,
but for Mary as near as we can tell, while he lived; there was no one standing
with Jesus, there was no one waging their life for the well being of humanity.
That happened after his death.
Since the beginning of this death fast, for
the first time in my eight years or so in DC, I've begun to see some people
possibly moving in the direction of waging their being for the well-being of
humanity, and if and when that happens, although they're my brothers and sisters
all, the size of my Family may increase. That's not my goal, that would be a
joy, and the greatest possible Hope for humanity. In a way it is my goal,
because waging one's life for the well-being of others, which is such a rarity
in this society, it's not a rarity among the cells in your body. It's not a
rarity among the organs in your body, it's what life does.
We're so corrupt, and so fallen that we've
stopped being family to one another. We have become sub-human. Our religion is
to be sub-human, less than human – predators, well dressed beasts. So in a way
our salvation will only come as we start to become really Family to one another,
but in my life, although I see those hovering, I see those wandering, it remains
to be seen whether they're the seed on the path, on the stone, among the thorns,
or on good Earth. Time will tell.
My love doesn't change whether someone's my
Family or not. My love for them doesn't change. But what they are changes. And
those who are Family are fully alive. Those who are not are fully dead, first to
themselves, and then to others. And
Jesus gave his life to bring us to Life. And he told us to ‘love as he loved,’
and that's been my choice, to learn to do that. And thank the Creator I've
listened to Him, and thank the Creator I've made progress, because if you're
wise you will envy every aspect of my life, you will envy every aspect of my
joy, just as I always embraced and envied that of Jesus and King and Gandhi, and
I was right. And I moved myself in that direction, and I'm now in heaven on
Earth. I believe in none other.
And of you love your children, or your nieces
and nephews, and your grandkids, you'll move yourself in the same direction and
you'll do it now. And the creator has given us one last set of heart-paddles to
re-start our cold, dead hearts. And that's the Truth of the Armageddon we’re
about to make unstoppable: that in 2012 we will decide whether the next 2,000
generations are living in hell or moving in the direction of heaven. It's time
to become Family to us all; for yourself, and for all
creation.
