Belief in fact
A poem about perspective. Once a group of people believe something, it is near impossible to convince them otherwise. You can present "facts"; they have their own "facts". There is no unalterable way to prove who's right or wrong, because the concept of right and wrong itself is human and flawed. As a result we have "belief", and war over blame and ideology, i.e. :"We believe that it's wrong to kill as X nation does, so we have to kill as many of them as we can". Or executing someone for murder. It's ludicrous.

right vs wrong…
if you’re ‘right’, someone has to be ‘wrong’, not so long ago we were burnt at the stake for being wrong, now, that is not right, well, what changed that right to a wrong? a simple change of thought-bundles… so, we now have the current se
MONSTER
This song was written around 1968 during the heyday of Vietnam and national unrest. But, I feel it can be applied to any time frame, or to any nation for that matter. Tears filled my eyes as I typed this, just as they always have when I would hear the song. I was going to write a long-winded dissertation of the futility of humanity, but I am afraid there wouldn't be the space available. I will say this...there is little that is humane about humanity. Yes, there are pockets of folks and a few organizations that at least try to help their brother, but they have become and probably always were merely a proverbial 'drop in the bucket'. Wish we could fill that bucket...
So Few are They Whose Legion is Peace
So few are they whose legion is peace. Did Columbus chase stillness beyond tumultuous seas? Sails and oars were manned by dissidents, genocide is patent. Prayers and spreads with huge birds were answered with reservations, provisions like

I love you…
Note: [‘I love you…’, All gurus, all religions, all of the spiritual paths tell us that this is the most transformative phrase in the universe… Why then do we not use it every chance we get? Recently, I came across a group of people who live, and I mean really live this dictum, I love you… They end their emails and telephone conversations with it, they hug and kiss strangers and tell them, I love you… I promise you, I’ll never forget the first time a guy said ‘I love you’ to me, and even more amazing, was that I reciprocated and meant it… Wow, what an unparalleled experience… I still find it very hard to say ‘I love you’ to a guy…, but, I’m practicing… I am Hellene(Greek), but born and bred outside of Hellas(Greece), I will never forget the first time a male fellow-Hellene kissed me on both cheeks as he greeted me, I broke out in an embarrassed cold sweat, it was always a warm glow and sheen, though, when an attractive young female Hellene greeted me that way…, so, yes, the concept is ancient, but, there’s something dramatically different about the way this group I referred to, does it. They do it from a place deep inside themselves, a place which recognizes that we’re all One! Further, they’ve come to this after a lot of study, meditation and discussion… And, no, they’re not the hippies and flower children of yesteryear constantly high on something, No, they’re educated, somber, responsible family men and women and even children are picking up on the love vibe…]
