What an astoundingly clear and deep analysis. Thank you, dear Cameron.

Thank you for clearly stating this in a way that we can clearly see the whole picture. The world is in such a mess and the mess keeps changing by the day. We can hardly keep up with it as we sort through it. I watched the Obama speech yesterday. After these past years with our current administration it was glaringly clear what we have lost. I grieved as I listened. We’ve become caught up in the trap of narcissism like an abused wife caught in her narcissistic husband’s trap. We are losing our identity as a nation of democracy. But there is always hope and it is with reflections like these that we must hold before us daily to light the way. Thank you for your encouraging words!

Prophetic words, clearly spoken with a Heart of Love.

May we all awaken to the urgent need to heal deep wounds that have been inflicted to millions of innocent lives for far too long.Domination and violence will never bring peace, only pain and injustice.

CLEARLY the best insightful and to the pointed reality of a peace plan that will go no where ...it wasn't about peace making any. Thank you.

When you have Trump, his administration, the Republican Party, SCOTUS and the American People all of who have allowed Trump to bring the United States and the World to this point in time, nothing has been learned. The MOU is the proof…

Very well articulated, and timely - thank you. And of course, behind this particular iteration of violence is the much deeper and wider war on the biosphere in which the resource wars are rooted.

Why do we have wars among ourselves? Is it not because we do not have what we want, and kill in order to steal what we want? Is it not because we abuse others and hoard for ourselves in our greed and terror of death? (See James 4:1-4 and 5: 1-6) we not only abuse other humans — the much longer, deeper, wider war is against all of the species on earth.

Modernity is species-ist and eugenicist. Look around at the leaders we have cultivated — they are unable to love. They are only able to kill and devour. They delude themselves into thinking)g that they will survive the rapid, accelerating mass extinction event that they have caused.

So many people are like fattened lambs being led to the slaughter by the wolves who pose as shepherds.

Creator Sets Free — Jesus—spoke clearly and plainly about these days. We have never been separate from the one beautiful body of Creation, nor are we separated from the Creator.

As we dance our prayers upon the earth, the way will open before us.

Love continues to be the Way that does not fail.

The inability to love is Hell.

The ability to love is Heaven.

We are here to love - nothing more, nothing less, nothing else.

Love is sufficient.
