the United States of Being

[SpiritAlight 1]

Yes, a friend and I got inspired and renamed it.

The U.S.of B.

Me likey!

And as in any great land of possibility, there is much work to do.

And we can do this positively, and with love and nurturing.

The choice is yours people.

Keep up a fight?

For what?

Expend energy in a negative manner....and wake up in the same #######.

Time for a new attitude.

Shift.

Update.

Deconstruct to reconstruct.

Feel that is it you that affects your world, and everyone else's!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have at it.

...and if they don't agree with you, then they're just bitter, racist fools, right?

Nope.

I cannot will not force anyone.

Time to wake up and smell the violence-is-just-not-working thingie.

That is all.

I love Every One.

The U.S.of B.

Does the B word rhyme with the word "witch"?

Oh, now I see it's "being". My version made more sense considering the new first lady.

[SpiritAlight 1]

The United State(s) of Being.

Get it?

Hee, hee.

Inclusivity!!

Separation destroys.

That was really uncalled for. If I wanted to, I could say something equally mean, like "Lalai is only YOUR first lady".

But I'm not mean like that, and this is a thread about love. So I'll just say that I think your comment was very mean.

I don't even know you or your wife, and I love both of you because we're all VJers.

Separation destroys.

Cellular division creates most life forms.

I make a distinction between public figures and attacking other people's VJ spouses.

I used the election as the introduction to my class today. (I train homeless men to staff houses for people with mental illness.) I said that if a mixed-race boy in the US with a name like Barack Obama, brought up by a single Mum on food stamps, can overcome those obstacles and become President, then they can too put their past behind them and achieve their goals.

I hope that he will become a good, possibly great, President. Regardless, his story will inspire others in this country who haven't felt inspired before.

Likewise, that's why I didn't attack other people's VJ spouses.

I only offered an example.

I don't know the first family directly, but I'm one degree removed in many directions.

I personally know 4 people who were in the friends & family tent, and 2 of them were

family members of mine. Add to that, the fact they will be America's first family,

and I take personal offense at your comments....but I love you anyways. :-)

But I'm wondering what the issue is that you have with our new first lady?
