I believe this is a critical time in the evolutionary transformation of the planet. I see finding the root cause of each individuals trauma as important so that collective, generational healing will occur. Gratitude and forgiveness of oneself and others puts us in the moment. It is a process for every human being living today.
Love is love. Unity, friendship, connection, trust, respect based on kindness and humility move us onward. Let us move forward together.
There is no safe place. I travelled across the country for almost 4 years. I even went to Texas. I know what is going on and it is not pretty. I know that we need to pray for these people, the woke and cancel cultures. We should help them repent because without unity there is no world. They have taken this too far. They are killing themselves and their children. There will be no reward for them, because we will no longer exit. And they think they are the greatest culture that ever lived? What is the world, when you can trust no one. Please help them this coming Yom Kippur, go to the beaches, a mountain top or a hill. Look up and ask for forgiveness and pray, all of us together. We have already lost beautiful men and women to war. They are destroying our environment. Just think of all the beauty we are losing. Music, art, poetry, birds, trees. Do I need to go on? There is nothing left to do but love one another!
From the activity of a few wild anarchists in the 19th and early 20th centuries aimed essentially at celebrities, terrorism has become a world plague that hits at random, usually groups or gatherings, almost anywhere on the planet.
I bless the victims of terrorist attacks everywhere, including those of random, totally senseless mass killings, that they may ultimately find meaning in what appears as a meaningless, crazy act of insanity or cruelty.
I bless them that they may find, deep down inside themselves, the strength and courage to forgive, as they understand that resentment is first of all an attack against themselves, just as forgiveness is a gift to themselves.
I bless them in their ability to avoid demonizing their attackers, be it as individuals or groups, and to avoid any desire for revenge, understanding that violence always begets violence on whichever side it may be practiced – the victims or the perpetrators. Pierre Pradervand
"The hostage-taker is dead, and for that I am sad. For he too was a child of God." Thank you for this. The liberal class never talks this way anymore. I hope you or somoeone like you challenges the neoliberal elitist Democratic Party establishment in 2024. Quite frankly, I would prefer it in the People's Party, but I would support you either way.
The people in the Texas synagogue had nothing, absolutely nothing, to do with the policies of the Israeli government. Anti-Semitic comments are unwelcome here.
Thank you, Marianne - I accept and understand your reprimand.
My comment was not intended to be "anti-Semitic" in any possible way. In WW2 my family was, at extreme danger, protecting and hiding Jews in our house, for example.
I am just continuously suffering observing for decades the nearly indescribable suffering of Palestinians from racism and apartheid of colonial settlers in their land -- terror that our country financially encourages with bipartisan support.
Yours is a repugnant response. Attacking American Jews or any Jews in the world has nothing to do with a government’s actions. It is pure antisemitism as is your response.
Arabs are equally children of God, and to be frank Palestinians are far more often innocent victims. I am a Christian. I worship the same God as Jews and Muslims. Al three religions trace their origins back to Abraham.
Although - all this is irrelevant. One should respect and have empathy for all humans, including atheist.
Our Gloria is a racist and her delicate feelings are offended if ever mentioned Palestinians - the "inferior humans" in apartheid Israel
Compare our rabid racist Gloria with a Jewish noble, Glenn Greenwald's statement on animals:
"Animals are beautiful, complex, majestic and fascinating -- including the ones we've been taught to fear or dislike. Along with humans and natural beauty, they're what make this planet so spectacular. Like all life, animal life is sacred and they deserve compassion and kindness."
Boris, my hope for all who feel oppressed is to realize us Homo Sapiens have slowly evolved and always in an upward spiral! My only concern, at this juncture, is that due to our climate emergency, well, we must, as Marianne says, "step it up"! We cannot afford to favor one country or group over another--the very young know this and they are cheering for unity to help heal our Earth. #Earth No. 1!
The Great Creator, Gloria, favors no people or governments. We must learn to live with each other in peace and harmony. As Marianne says, "all minds on deck." So our thoughts and actions make the difference when we are open to seeing life from many views!
We must evolve from where we are as humans or face the extinction of all co- inhabitants on Earth. It's the start of a new evolution needed for survival. Love will win! 🙏
I never talked about favoring anyone. Jews in USA were held hostage. Instead of expressing gratitude for their safe rescue, some guy brings up the Palestinians who have nothing to do with the hostages. If Muslims were held hostage in a mosque in US it would be equally insensitive and racist to ignore them & instead bring up the plight of Israelis subjected to terrorism or women or non-Muslims or lgbt oppressed in many Muslim countries. If Chinese Americans were held hostage in US, would it be appropriate to say “What about the Ughyurs (sp)” as if Chinese Americans are to blame? No matter what hate crimes are committed against Jews, there’ll always be some people who don’t care and change the conversation.
You say: "No matter what hate crimes are committed against Jews, there’ll always be some people who don’t care and change the conversation." Indeed, the same holds true Gloria for many ideological, cultural, and ethnic groups too. That's the major concern I have: we need to disregard our differences and realize we are 'one'. Until then, it's the same-old, same-old story with lots of griping etc. Then, new events will happen with repeats of these same kinds of dialogues until people finally get it.
The realization that we are not separate is the only way humanity will survive. So I wish you peace and love--that's all that really counts.
Thank you Vicky. I am glad you are reading these threads. My idea about Oct. 5 is something I believe that the world wants, the GREAT MYSTERY wants, Yeshua wants, or whom ever you believe is your creator. These MOVEMENTS are permeated into our society. They have even indoctrinated our children. They are even having their children helping them to do their dirty work. It would be to scary to tell you what it is. I have tried to think of every answer. I am not sure if I should have gone to the police years ago. I do not want violence or war. We know how that turns out. The problem is trust. My father taught me to trust no one until they earn your trust. This has made me very observant. I can see through these people most of the time. Vanessa talked about Martin Luther King. He was the most articulate and loving man ever! He said something that has resonated with me. It is not old fashioned now! He said, “sometimes, we have to go backward before we can go forward”. This is what we need to do. We need to work on ourselves. Being better people. Having integrity, character, humbleness, thankfulness and being charitable. All of this politically correct language is just a smoke screen, a way to manipulate us. I know it is important to express correctly how you feel, but, what we need to work more on is the, “content of our character”. Entitlement is not something that Dr. King had in any of his speeches. We all have our lessons to learn and we are exactly where we are suppose to be.
Vanessa, what do you mean by a MOMENTOUR? I thought that if we went to the beaches or the mountain top or a hilltop, that we could all look at each other in the eye. Even, if you are not religious, you have to know of the beauty of these places. Know that, we are all a part of this beautiful picture, something that these MOVEMENTS are literally destroying. They are destroying our humanity. This world is not about money, power or fame. We were all put here to do our part. Do you know about an African American man in, I believe, South Central Los Angeles, who was teaching people how to grow food in the city? He became so famous I think he probably does not have time to do it anymore. What a tragedy that would be. I believe African Americans were given, “soul” from our creator. What an incredible people or race. I cry when I think of what integrity, backbone, humbleness, fortitude, strength, courage they had. I could go on and on. The music used to ooze from them. And then there were woman like Billy Holiday that tried to express the pain, and people did not get it, or want to get it. My mother was a alcoholic with the same kind of love inside her. Just killing her, and no one could see what she was trying to express. We all know about how horrible these memories were, but, they are not us. We were not the perpetrators! We are not those souls! The Native Americans could have taught us about the environment, but, no one listened to them either. They could have taught us about cohesiveness, family, honor, bravery, herbal medicines, the list goes on and on.
So, where are we now you ask? No creator, no soul, no compassion, no love, just entitlement. It is not what it should be, in this garden of Eden that was given to us.
I got this really interesting spiritual book when I was a teenager, not feeling all together with myself. It said, “ how do you compare a lotus to a rose?”. We are all so different, with so many different talents. You can not compare yourself with others, and never should. There should always be honor in who you are and where you came from. We have to take back our young people and give them the beauty! Show them how it is suppose to be.
Wendy is the name of my best friend that passed away. I cannot avoid trying to communicate with you.
I am sorry that your friend was vandalized. They may have been looking for something or for some reason, they have something against your heritage or your friends political platform. These movements are filled with hate. If you are white or of any privilege, they may believe you are an offender. We do not even have the same souls as our great grand parents have had, and yet they believe we are guilty! They do not even know me and they are after me. If I told you everything they have done to me, you may not sleep at night. I am a warrior and they cannot effect me. I have enough love in me, to obliterate them. They try to kill me slowly and say they are not hurting me. This is in there own twisted mind. I am not afraid because I have, “The great mystery”, behind me. This is the Native Americans name for Yeshua, which is very close to the spelling of what the Native America name him. Yes, I believe that the Native Americans have Jewish ancestry. By the way, most white people in America are several different nationalities!
Please go to a beach or a mountain top on Oct. 5.2022, (not the night before, so it is in broad daylight). We all need to show that we want a none violent resolution to this! We have to change hearts and minds. Please people try to help. This involves big business, politicians, government and the working class. We have to have them say,” We want a beautiful world filled with love and peace”.
With all that is going on in the world this felt as if it was a precurser for even more. I am British Church of England turned Catholic and I was educated in a private school with nuns. we learned to project love and help your fellow man.
When I got into high school I was expected by my family to start volunteering at whatever the Charity of my choice was. I Chose a Hospital and a home for severely challanged children with mental dissabilities. These were things that were taught by family and the nuns at school.
At school I had Jewish girls in my class and I Learned about Judaism. I Learned about their families and their custroms. I found their custroms to be very beautiful and warming to the heart. In my life I have been arround a lot of Jewish people and they have the epitomy of family values. They are kind, educated and very talented. I have never heard of a Jewish man raping anyone or holding up a bank. Jewish people are the ipitomy of a civilization with strong proactive social values . They honour God, family and society with all they do.
My father worked for a large Jewish Company and when my mother was dying and the Company found out that their health coverage would not cover everything adaquatley the Owner of the company covered over 35K worth of medical bills for her, and that was in 1976. they sent roses on my 21st birthday and gifts for my wedding. When my fathers mother was dying in England they told him to go to England and take care of everything and they sent his pay cheques to us. He was gone for two months.
The United States Constitution states One Country indivisible under God and so does Canada and yet both countries have lost their values. These form the basis of a flourishing country.
Good values , good work ethics, morals, help your neighbour, fair but firm laws and great education that is available to all including College and University. we need to teach the ancient philosophiers...thay have wisdom beyond ours.
Martin Luther King had a dream, Gandhi had a dream, Churchill had a dream, Kennedy had a dream. There is a God, Christ lived and died for us and for all, lets get back to basics , let us hold our families as sacred to us and the world. Jewish people know and espouse these values.
Jewish people and all people are valuable. We need to all espouse a brotherhood of man.
We need to love and care for one another. I Challenge you to go up to any Jewish person you know and tell them you are so hurt by what has appened in this Situation I challange you to show love to your neighbour by taking them something you baked or bought and Write a nice card telling them thank you and that you value them as a neighbour.
In Canada when Trudeau decided to let in thousands of immigrants many were opposed to this. I joined a group in our church and we raised 95,000 Dollars to help two families, one Muslim and one Christian and we set them up for life. I Chose to Approach as many immigrants as possible and say to them, welcome to Canada,. You are part of my Canada. I Wish you all the best in our Country.
Man’s inhumanity to man is horrific. I cry when I think about it! We are not the souls of others! We all live a long time so we can correct our mistakes! What I have witnessed with this movement, woke, cancel culture or who ever these souls are, they are not forgiving. They want revenge. They are angry. They are angry about racism, the destroying of cultures which includes colonialists of the past, the excesses of people’s way of living, not getting their fair shake, not living where they want to live! They have tried to destroy with poisons anything in their wake. They are placing people all over our country and other countries to destroy everything that they think is unfair and wrong with the past. Please, you don’t have to be religious, just a decent person who wants a world of peace. A giving, intelligent and incredible person’s young daughter said at her father’s funeral that he told her, “ there is nothing that we cannot accomplish if we want it bad enough”. We need to show the world we want it. Go to the ocean or that mountain top this coming Oct. 5th. We have to show the world we want love and peace. It would be great to see a person in the movement that hears me. I know who you are. I know exactly what is going down. I have not said a word to anyone! Save yourself.
I believe this is a critical time in the evolutionary transformation of the planet. I see finding the root cause of each individuals trauma as important so that collective, generational healing will occur. Gratitude and forgiveness of oneself and others puts us in the moment. It is a process for every human being living today.
Love is love. Unity, friendship, connection, trust, respect based on kindness and humility move us onward. Let us move forward together.
Indeed,Alexis, moving forward together! We will, hopefully, sooner than not.
There is no safe place. I travelled across the country for almost 4 years. I even went to Texas. I know what is going on and it is not pretty. I know that we need to pray for these people, the woke and cancel cultures. We should help them repent because without unity there is no world. They have taken this too far.

As the popular song says, "Let there be peace once on Earth and let it begin with me." We can do this! We must for the sake of all. 💗🙏
For Victims of Terrorist Att acks
From the activity of a few wild anarchists in the 19th and early 20th centuries aimed essentially at celebrities, terrorism has become a world plague that hits at random, usually groups or gatherings, almost anywhere on the planet.

We should show similar empathy for daily horror on Palestinians
