When it comes to environmentalism, why let Al Gore, Teddy Roosevelt, and John Muir take all the credit? Some of the most powerful voices documenting and studying our unique planet have been women.

For the 16 Days of Activism Campaign, I am taking action with my friends at Say NO – UNiTE to end violence against women and girls. I wear orange because I want women in violent relationships to know that there’s a way out. It can happen to anyone! I was in a relationship that was violent. It took me years to speak about it.

Blessed Are They . . .
November 25, 2013 by admin
Blessed Are They . . . Righteous One way of generating a fresh and clear perspective or viewpoint on the word righteous is to see its meaning in terms of two words: "right" and "use". Right-use-ness then can guide and prompt the consciousness with the question: what is the right use? Having This right use entails the whole issue of having. Whatever befalls the zone of individuality, our term for what we often have called "me" and "mine", is for right use. Having is not to furnish … [Read more...]

Betrayal of Trust
November 24, 2013 by admin
Betrayal of Trust This subject was nominated by a friend. This friend suggested the use of capital punishment for Betrayal of Trust. Another friend queried whether betrayal of trust was possible. Here, now, I question, what is the nature of the trust? Is it trust in another's intent, their ability or performance, or perhaps their representation. I commented at the time the subject was nominated, "Trust is not offered in response to trustworthiness, but because trust works". I … [Read more...]

It may seem to require courage to gain the answers, but it takes more courage to live without gaining the answers. If you simply realize that each of us … [Read more...]
