Homicide Is The Major Leagues, The Center

If I Were A Person Of Color In Florida, I Would Pick Up A Brick And Start Walking Toward That Courthouse In Sanford. Those That Do Not, Those That Hold The Pain And Betrayal Inside And Somehow Manage To Resist Violence - These Citizens Are Testament To A Stoic Tolerance That Is More Than The Rest Of Us Deserve. I Confess, Their Patience And Patriotism Is Well Beyond My Own.

I'm Making A Lot Of Money. I Should Be Paying A Lot More Taxes. I'm Not Paying Taxes At A Rate That Is Even Close To What People Were Paying Under Eisenhower. Do People Think America Wasn't Ascendant And Wasn't An Upwardly Mobile Society Under Eisenhower In The '50s? Nobody Was Looking At The Country Then And Thinking To Themselves, "we're Taxing Ourselves Into Oblivion." Yet There Isn't A Politician With Balls Enough To Tell That Truth Because The Whole System Has Been Muddied By The Rich. It's Been Purchased.

Healing From Our Past Is An Essential Aspect Of Expanding Our Sense Of Self And Awakening Our Capacity To Love. This Shift Often Manifests As A Change In The Questions We've Been Asking Ourselves. Instead Of What Do I Need? We Ask, How Can I Serve? Instead Of What Am I Getting Out Of This? We Start To Ask, What Can I Bring To This Situation To Promote The Highest Possible Outcome For Everyone Involved?

Those...who Insist That There Are Some Moral Limits That They Will Not Violate, Are Forever Surprising Themselves.
