"Start, what if you knew that your efforts were of absolutely no hope?"

Nancy,

I'm almost always very upbeat, really.  Yesterday, for a fleeting
moment, the thought entered my mind, "Start, what if you knew
that there was absolutely no hope, that your efforts are of
absolutely zero hope, impact or positive value. What then?
[because at the moment, I correctly realized that this may be true]"

My answer came immediately - "I'd keep doing what I'm doing. 
I don't want the existence of a parasite; I don't want what that feels like. 
I don't want to be evil.  I don't want to live separated from the
Love within me as a brother for all of Humanity born and to be born.
Been there, done that.

I don't want a life of pleasure when I can have the Life of Joy
that comes from Dying for a better world, one with with less
suffering, and more Joy."

The Church taught me to be "Catholic." Jesus taught me to be a Brother to EVERYONE. How totally UnChristLike the "Church" is.

This is how I feel.  Enormously Joyful.  Now, if Our Father said to me,
"Start, how many years do you want me to give you?"  "Well, up to infinity
if I can do any Good," I'd answer.  But being in the Fight for Humanity is such
profound Joy, that if He wants me, whenever, next week, whatever, that's perfectly
fine too.  Such concerns as avoiding death are simply transcended; relatively
unimportant.  Amazing. 

"Just keep giving me my 'Daily Bread' father - your Work, our
Family's Work to do; that's all I ask.  Let me HELP! Please, let me Help."  SL

You understand.

Friends - please help. VERY important.

I'm hopeful, but about very few, right?  Yes, I'm a real grouch.  But there are a
few, a VERY few that really give me hope. 

PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT AND READ.

Please help BuzzFlash.com if you can.  NOW.  Please forward this to others:

Red Alert: BuzzFlash has a dream: a true progressive community promoting progressive commerce and ideas that pay for progressive journalism and activism. Can you keep that Dream Alive and help us close our $14,980 budget gap for October? Buy a progressive premium, become a monthly donor, buy a holiday or birthday gift certificate, custom order a book or DVD, or just donate (the best option, because then we are not paying for the premium.) Click here right now. Progressives need to financially support sites like BuzzFlash, because with the ads on corporate journalism comes the bias of corporate journalism.

Keep the unique dream of an economic progressive commerce that financially underwrites progressive journalism and activism (like our http://www.turnofffox.com campaign) alive with your dollars. We know the nudging is annoying. If our donor base becomes large enough, we can become less pesty.

But think of the good you are doing, just think about the change that the Internet made possible -- and BuzzFlash was here in 2000, the first progressive pugilist on the web. (No lavish salaries at BuzzFlash; the editor receives $22,500 a year for a 7 day work week.) Please, Please, Please donate or buy a progressive premium today to make up a $15,400 gap. Heck, only one person on our staff even owns a car.

BuzzFlash.com, ok, I'm ready for your death blow now.

My dear, dear friend at BuzzFlash.com , ok, I'm ready for your death blow now.  It's ok.

Your last 6 hr page right now is so powerful, so stunningly energizing,
so totally appropriate, so hugely CONSTRUCTIVE, so
appropriately leading, so mature and responsible... that I KNOW
that you are taking me to the heights of ecstasy so you can
dash me on the rocks for the final time tomorrow with a flurry of, well,
you know... negative, destructive, cowardly, childish, whining,
myopic, scapegoating, hypocritical, sadistic... articles tomorrow. 

:-)

But I'm ok with that, cuz today you made it clear to me what
you are capable of.  I was right all along about your potential!!!
I knew it!!!

hadn't seen it before - AND IT WAS US.

Re Climate Change: 1. Decide what's needed. 2. Do it. 3. Research whether it is possible. Plan 4.0 Intro.

"The thinking that got us into this mess is not likely to get us
out. We need a new mindset. Let me paraphrase a comment by
environmentalist Paul Hawken in a 2009 college commencement
address. In recognizing the enormity of the challenge facing
us, he said: First we need to decide what needs to be done.
Then we do it. And then we ask if it is possible.
Lester R. Brown
