We are on this journey together, in harmony, granted a short period of time on this planet.
We all die, you can be pharaoh, build a pyramid for the afterlife, but these possessions stay on earth.
All those possessions we have attained have no impact after we die. You may have a giant headstone, but that is to impress the living, who will be dead soon enough.
Our goal of being happy, is not a life of chasing pleasure or avoiding the unpleasant.
Happy people are givers with a highly developed gratitude practice, people who are kind and caring of others.
In this time of turmoil, where violence, hate and fear dominate our country, how do we heal and live a worthwhile life?
Politics are so divisive, journalists have taken sides as media becomes as biased as democrats and republicans.
One side hates the other side, believing they are evil.
No one wins in a society like this, especially the needy.
Where are the peacemakers in our midst?
Do no harm has changed to, do the most harm possible, eviscerate your enemy.
Disrespect and intolerance are the norm these days.
How do we change our present condition?
Thoughts?

Peace makers don’t often make the headlines in our present culture. Nor are they often noticed at all. They can be criticized and put down. But we are here none the less. We can do our work silently without expecting thanks. But we must keep doing our work and never give up!
