I get all choked up at that scene. It’s almost as good as the end of The Dirty Dozen.

“..despite the foolishness of our so-called elected officials. They don’t matter, your people do.”

That’s true to a certain extent, but we must not forget that our current trajectory is dooming our progeny to live under utterly suffocating Soviet-style tyranny. So, unfortunately, our “elected” officials matter. A lot.

Great Advice. The politicians do not matter; the People matter.

Thank you and God bless you, Laz. Very inspirational. I admit that I haven’t been stalking your every post, but the last personal post I recall reading you were struggling in your personal relationships.

Glad to know that we can get through the darker times and emerge on the other side into the light. It gives us all motivation to press on with our own private battles.

A lovely message for a Sunday morning. We should all be as happy, loving & free as possible within our own spheres of existence. We have to recognize that what’s going on is a spiritual battle, but God wins in the end.

Good words to live by, Laz, THANK YOU! I have concerns in my life, but I also have many blessings. We can’t help but look at what’s wrong in the world, but we should never lose sight of what’s right, especially in our own personal universe. It’s balance. It’s a counterweight, if you will, and it helps keep us sane, I think.

My rules for a good day — there are only three with one overrider:

(1) Laugh or smile about something. Anything.

(2) Get someone else to laugh or smile about something. Anything.

(3) Learn something new.

The overrider: have faith in and pray to God.

Thank you for this reminder, Laz. It has been easy lately to get caught up in focusing on all of the wrongs, and I need to do a better job of treasuring the rights.

Keep that in the forefront of your mind, and live each day to your fullest, despite the foolishness of our so-called elected officials. They don't matter, your people do.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

You have arrived at a Buddhist Truth.

All things will pass, they are impermanent, and so we enter the present moment fully, unhindered by the past or future, love is the only extant thing that will survive the force of impermanance.

One day this body will be a corpse, so concentrate on liberating yourself and others from the cycle of suffering , old age sickness and death.This is the way of the Bodhisattva Warrior.

Human beings can liberate themselves in this way. Whole Kingdoms have been established on this principle over the last 2600 years.Such as that of Ashoka Maharaja , and the Kings of Shambhala.

Thank you for your brilliant reminder Laz, and my heart sings that you have achieved peace and love in your life.Say hello to the Humble for me.
