"For it's the judgment, finger pointing and blame that creates the black holes which separate us from each other and remove true wealth and aubundance from our reach. Looking into the dark void to cast blame only keeps us and others from facing the light to embrace forgiveness and love." Unfortunately there is injustice in the world, and fortunately not everyone is willing to lie about in the shade denying it. Blameless people with good intentions die at the hands of the corrupt elite with bad intentions. I will take a stand against injustice and for truth and justice while in this world. It is true that you can not take such a stand without critiquing each situation, passing judgement on it, and assigning responsibility. We are not talking about judging in the sense of the Christian scripture that states "Thou shalt not Judge;" which is in reference to passing judgement on a persons soul. "When we bait, hook and judge, we close off the unlimited energy that could be released if we were to forgive the U.S., forgive Saddam and forgive ourselves from pointing fingers and assigning blame." True forgiveness is possible when based on three precipitating factors: 1) The perpetrator recognizes the behavior as unjust, 2) The perpetrator wants to take responsibility for their part in the problem and sincerely wants to correct the injustice, 3) The perpetrator sincerely seeks forgiveness......A man is a fool who forgives a rattlesnake. The snake has no intention to withhold its poisonous strike and you only enable it to succeed by your denials and petting. False forgiveness is what a coward does by watching and enabling injustice while claiming their cause is peace. Many take this approach (as long as it isn't in my back yard). There is no peace in knowing that innocent creatures are suffering at the hands of the corrupt while you do nothing. Peace with Justice, Stop...and think about it. "I'd be very interested in working with you to set an example which we could share with others" If this model includes taking responsibility and standing against injustice, I'm all ears.
