Awakening Into Love Is A Lifelong Path.

In Baltimore They Can't Do Police Work To Save Their Lives. Now Because Of Freddie Gray They're Not Even Getting Out Of The Car And Policing Corners - They're On A Job Slowdown, Basically. Right Now If The Police Stopped Being Brutal, If We Got Police Shooting Under Control, And The Use Of Excessive Force, If We Have A Meaningful Societal Response To All That Stuff, And The Racism That Underlies It, The Question Still Remains: What Are They Policing, And Why?

The Greatest Contribution We Can Make To The Wellbeing Of Those In Our Lives Is To Have Peace In Our Own Hearts. When Our Hearts Are Filled With Gratitude And Our Minds Are Brimming With Enthusiasm, Everyone We Encounter Leaves Our Space Feeling A Little Bit Lighter Than When They Entered It.

What Appeals To Me In The Deuce Is Some Of The Same Things That Made Me Interested In The Wire, Which Is There Seems To Be A Theme Here Around Markets And Capitalism And Labour. This Is A Moment, 1971, Of Something That Was Under The Counter: Then Brown Paper Bags Suddenly Became Legal, Pornography. And It Was Really The Birth Of An Industry Which Is Now A Multi-billion Dollar American Standard. And These People Were The Pioneers At A Moment Where There Really Were No Rules, Then Suddenly There Was A Legal Industry That Was Allowed To Exist.

Not Only Did This New Pornography Industry Change The Way Men Look At Women And How We Relate To Sex, How We Sell Stuff, And Not Only Did It Change America's Cultural Landscape - It's Also This Incredible Metaphor For A Market-based Economy. The Great Pyramid Scheme That America Has Become. I Felt Like In Were Larger Themes In Terms Of Culture And Economics That Could Be Addressed.

You Are Worthy Of Love And You Deserve To Be Happy. You Have These Beautiful Qualities And Many More Because You Are Living The Gift Of A Human Incarnation. My Hope Is That You Will Embrace These Truths And Your Birthright To Live A Life Abundant In Love, Joy, And Celebration.
