Ever wonder: Why do some people get so angry and infuriated when confronted with information that suggests that their suffering and distress are a result of exploitative capitalist/colonial systems rather than stemming from innate, individual biological defects? – Ayesha Khan, PhD

To let the moment teach us, we must allow ourselves to be at least slightly stunned by it until it draws us inward and upward toward a subtle experience of wonder. We normally need a single moment of gratuitous awe to get us started. – Richard Rohr

That single moment arises often in the ordinary: flowers on the side of the road; finding a really, really good stick on the ground; a shift in the wind in our sails. And it also includes things we generally don’t even think of as pleasures, like the water on our hands as we wash dishes; even the hot sun on our face as we step off the porch. There are thousands of such moments happening every day offered for our gratitude.

Speaking of: Sebastian Murdock writing for Huffington has posted a bit of awesome concerning UAP's: “the U.S. government has been taking part in "a multi-decade UAP crash retrieval and reverse-engineering program. . . . “non-human” “biologics” were found at crash sites where the objects were recovered." The statements were made during a congressional hearing yesterday focused on UAP's.
