Season For Peace, Season For Love

Doesn't really much matter what you believe, it's a beautiful story. This little baby is born in a barn surrounded by the animals. So this guy who started life homeless grows up to be the Prince Of Peace.

Happy holidays, whatever you celebrate. I believe it all. I love you.

Our Song

Maybe all that separates us at all is the movie that plays in each of our minds. I'm starting to think that the individual bodies don't mean a thing. We're all one except for what we put together in our heads.

At different times I've had women in my life who announced to me, "That's our song."I still struggle with the concept of the love of my life and still work hard to dream some order into a chaotic heart and mind. 

It must be wonderful to have a song with somebody.

End Of The World- Ho, Ho, Ho

If you can't do anything over I suppose that doing it better next time around is the best alternative. It's not what you've done, it's what you're gonna do. I've got so much love in my heart that it's clogging my arteries.

Let's celebrate life and the holidays. Let's love like crazy.

Holiday Cheer

The holidays are here and I've never seen the country sadder. This is a season for children. If you're not a kid, you're thinking about kids; you're remembering. You've got one weapon here. Love. Use it. Help others find some.

Tight Grip

It's pretty hard to know that you have a good grip on reality if you can't settle on what reality is. If all of my lessons are gonna be about loss from here on out, then I would just as soon quit learning any.

Attachment. Yeah, I know all about it. Too much, in fact. I would like to love without attachment. I haven't figured it out.

Hippies And Love And Stuff

Of course I know that the heart is not where all the romance happens. It's really just a messy muscle that pumps the blood. It feels like it all goes on in there, though.

Instead of worrying about the past some kind of muscle memory provides me with the euphoria of some kid in love for the first time. I'm glad that I can't seem to learn not to touch the hot stove. I wouldn't want to have missed anything. 

Sometimes when your heart has been broken I suppose that it's normal to question what you've been through. Now, here I am. I have loved.

Re-Wire

Hate and distrust are hardwired into us as part of our survival package. If everyone could be trusted with our hearts and our wallets we would have nothing to defend. As in any disarmament program no one wants to be the first to lay down his weapon. We get rid of the troublemakers. John Lennon, Dr. King, Gandhi.

We use the image of the historic Jesus to support wars and profit. After Sunday school age you don't hear much about this Prince of Peace thing.

It has to start with you. That's right. I'm preaching to you.
