***** Another note to my dearest: (detail) "I think I can stand, I think I have no choice but to stand, for Universal Family, or kill me, or torture me. I think I can do that. I think maybe I can hold on to that, and let that hold on to, and to lead, me."

This felt like a real step forward for me personally, a real liberation.  I am totally overwhelmed by the horrors... every day new ones emerge that I didn't see, and I thought I'd seen it all.   Look to my blog for the Chris Hedges article today on 'We Kill our Revolutionaries' about the magnificent young man framed by the US Gov for a murder he didn't commit... because he was leading fellow prisoners to stand up for their rights. I can't breathe.

Every minute is a new horror, a new holocaust, in just Palestine.  Like yesterday when Israel opened flood gates and flooded already homeless thousands in Palestine from their hovels. 

How do I breathe?  What do I do?  How do I get out of bed?  What do I tell others?  How do I defend what I do?
I don't know. Tho I'll study every minute I am able, I don't know. I'll never know.

But when this hit me, an evolution of a similar revelation about 7 years ago, all of a sudden I felt something I may be able to hold on to, a lifeboat,  right up to the gallows:

"I think I can stand, I think I have no choice but to stand, for Universal Family, or kill me, or torture me.  I think I can do that. I think maybe I can hold on to that, and let that hold on to, and to lead, me."

nd. Please be advised, I am getting less tolerant by the minute of people that spew their condemnation of the right, of anyone, no matter how righteous, that are not putting their very lives, resources, time, livelihoods... where there mouths are.

The man who rescued 500 Nigerian schoolgirls from Boko Haram..... "I had a sense of accomplishment on completing this task," he said. "After the whole thing, what is important is that whenever you feel that you just have to do something, you just have to do it, regardless of risk."

Chris Hedges on Moral Courage

Chris Hedges on Moral Courage

A letter to a JW brother I've corresponded with periodically, and very productively, for 6 years or so now. He and his wife are serving the boat people, refugees in Italy.

I just saw an article briefly about an upcoming conference to reduce the threat
of a nuclear holocaust.  I can think of nothing more merciful for humanity now than
a global, thorough, total, nuclear holocaust, extinguishing everyone, everywhere,
instantly.  I can't.  The near universal, inescapable suffering currently assured for
us is beyond unbearable. (The only 'escape' will be the 'transport,' 'Salvation,' to the
Creator's Kingdom, for those 1 in a million in every faith and no faith at all that
respond to the horror by moving into that part of ourselves which is Universal
Loving - Serving the neediest, from the Soul, in Solidarity.  Their material world
will be Hell but their experiential, psychological, Spiritual world will be Heaven,
Joy, Loving, total Peace of Heart.)

I wrote this yesterday, a bit different than what I've written before:
Oddly (don't get your hopes up), I spend more time, much more time
defending organized religion than denouncing it these days.  Those
against 'religion' are exactly as 'religious' and hateful and dogmatic
and blind... as I find the religionists to be. AND, I am persuaded, if nothing
else, that what is represented in this poll below is essentially and profoundly
correct, that the quality of life among the world's destitute is dramatically
improved by deep participation in organized religion, and why would I
want their lives to be even more miserable?


AND... I can't explain the relatively immense peacefulness, goodness, humanity,
Godliness of the middle east Arabs despite the 70 year reign of US, British, Israeli
terror... except that Islam is a profoundly Humanizing force for them.

I find Islam a major improvement over christianity in that it un-diefies Jesus, returns
him to his Divinity - that he is JUST a man, like you and me, but by embracing and
being embraced by one, simple, total religion, Unconditional Loving, he offered us
Salvation.  He offered us the only Revolution that was ever there, and we've used all
of our abilities to do everything and anything but.   Instead, as virtually all religions do,
instead of offering us an escape from reality, he offered us the way to embrace and
to be embraced by Ultimate Reality, God, the Creator... Unconditional Loving.

Maybe the greatest 'discovery' of my life was just weeks ago when I saw that Evil,
Satan, the Devil... is CONDITIONAL Loving in whatever form, and that God, the Creator,
Good, the Divine... is UNCONDITIONAL Loving in whatever form.  It is that simple.
Full Stop.

Oh, and yes, Recently 'discovering' Chris Hedges is a great gift to me.  Yes, I've known of him for years, but his categorical dismissal of Pr. Obama from the beginning put me off and I've not been following his work. Chris is maybe even more scathing than I of the worthless liberals in this country, and yet he lays every possible shortfall in the Obama admin at Pr. Obama's feet seemingly oblivious to the fact that with a criminally do-nothing liberal constituency Pr. Obama is virtually powerless to do much.  Deep sigh.  But I still am now finding the deep and broad study of Chris a Godsend for me right now in my attempts to become less pitifully unable to help.  It is as though my beloved (all of humanity) was desperately ill (as we are) and I thought I had to do all of the research to understand the disease. I knew the nature and direction but I had to devote the  impossibly long time to understand the genesis, development, manifestations,  characteristics... and by then, well, it would be so much later than it is already to try to be a better 'cure' than I've yet become.  He is an impossible, a Divine gift to us, a True Prophet, if ever there has been one - in breadth,depth, courage, humanity, courage, Truth, Unconditional Loving.....

I don't know that I've told you this story before - about 6 weeks ago I could no longer stand sitting idly by and watching my neighbor, next cot over in the homeless shelter from me, 53 year old Paul, then in month 10 of looking for work, day in, day out.  With a rap sheet as long as one's arm, minor drug offenses, of which he has been clean since 2001, and off probation since 2012, and in an economy with less and less jobs, he gets rejection after rejection after rejection.  I have next to no contacts to help, but there are two christian churches that come in force every weekend to conduct a service for those who wish to attend, and feed a nice meal afterward.  By the way, JW's never set foot here. No interest. The devote their time as Jesus NEVER DID to trying to snag the wealthy, in front of the White House all day, in front of the Shopping Malls on weekends. (Yes, I'm not happy about this.)  I approached both of these churches, the pastor of one, a deacon of the other and told them briefly about Paul, how long and hard he has looked for whatever sh*t demeaning job society would give him, that he gets nothing but rejection, often because of his 'record,' and that I'm worried that I'll lose him back into a destructive life-style if something does not come thru, sooooooon.  One of these two men instantly said, 'Here is my phone number, have him call me. I'll reach out to my contacts, and try to help.'  He has been better than his word, in weekly contact. BTW, Paul shows zero inclination of attending this man's church service.  The other man, the deacon, said with great enthusiasm (and all the selfrighteousness of Satan), 'Well, just tell him about Jesus.'  Which man is Christlike?

One of dozens of reasons I adore Chris Hedges.  I've not watched it by the way, but I expect to, and I've heard him touch on the subject elsewhere:


Hugs to you both
