There was a time, not too long ago when people thought positive thoughts
and there were many among them who not only thought those thoughts, but put those thoughts into action.

Today. Fast forward.

Where are the people with positive thoughts who don't only react to others who express negative thoughts?

where are the people who watch the propaganda with one eye on the truth, and the other eye on those that speak the truth?

where are the people who don't only repeat the anger of the people who live with hatred and death, but offer another way of being?

Here is possibly one place, but one must be careful to step over the mines.

Peace. And Love. And Togetherness for all, including those who have no clue....yet.

Peace and love and understanding.

Rinse and repeat.

3. the time is now
or else there is no time.

go figure, time is a construct of the mind. Wouldn't you rather construct positive thoughts?

endless possibilities. . .

4. See Barbara Ehrenreich's "Pathologies of Hope" in the Feb 2007 Harper's
She says it so much better than I can.
