We Americans are facing basically the same challenge as the rest of the world.
        We have allowed ourselves to get into a situation where we either change our ways or
go extinct.
        It's already decided we're not going extinct, so we are in the process of changing. It is
NOT business as usual.
        The solution is a bit more complicated than modifying our use of resources, or how we
treat the planet, or how we handle money, etc.
        It is more about how we respect ourselves and relate to each other.
      We are here as aspects of the divine indwelling matter. We are here so divinity can
experience living in matter, in the physical.
        We are to remember who we are and to help each other. We are here to stand with each
other shoulder to shoulder. We are NOW to show how we live and to help each other, to
change the way we humans interact with one another.
        Certain behaviors must cease. We must stop trafficking. All trafficking. We cannot
afford to be partisan any longer. Persecuting people for speaking true must be eliminated
whether we recognize what is said as true or not. Each must decide. Disregarding
consequences to others is past. Material profit as a bottom line is not good for our well being.
Neither is money as a prime motivator or an expression of support.
        Consideration for others is a priority. How does what we are doing affect others? Is what
we are thinking good for all?
        Respect for Life is respect for all life, from coming in [birth] to leaving [death].
Choosing to discriminate on the basis of one’s physical characteristics, stages of
development, type of organism, etc. is not respect. Respect includes encouraging the
expression of all rights of living beings for all the living. The living includes micro
organisms, water, plants, trees, crawlers, flyers, etc., as well as two, four, six, eight, no and
many leggeds, winged ones, swimming beings, floating ones, rocka, atoms and Anastasis
[Earth] herself.
        Respect is allowing the other to exercise free expression whether we agree or not.
        It is time now to remove the limits we place on our consciousness and recognize the
many different aspects of Creation that may interest us, or not.
        It is time for cooperation, for standing together, shoulder to shoulder for what we know
is true and just, for the benefit of all.
        Our choice.
