In the words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., it is time to inject “new meaning into the veins of human civilization.” We need to expand our sense of love beyond the personal, to its social and political implications as well. Only in doing so will we cast out the darkness that now hangs like a specter above the world. It is time for us to get deeply serious about love.
from The Shadow Effect, by Marianne Williamson.
For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains,
but to live in a way that respects and enhances
the freedom of others.
July 1st ~ CANADA DAY
The people of Canada have worked hard to build a country that opens its doors to include all, regardless of their differences; a country that respects all, regardless of their differences, a country that demands equality for all regardless of their differences. - Paul Martin.
…God loves things by becoming them. God loves things by uniting with them, not by excluding them. Through the act of creation, God manifested the eternally outflowing Divine Presence into the physical and material world. Ordinary matter is the hiding place for Spirit, and thus the very Body of God. - Richard Rohr.
"Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair. It is more powerful than government in breaking down racial barriers."
-Nelson Mandela
We congratulate the Toronto Raptors on an inspiring, and uniting win. We The North.
