To open oneself up completely, with our fears, our weaknesses, our strengths, our love, is the risk we take in human form. We trust that familiarity will not lead to contempt, but that our subconscious will strengthen this thing we call love. As long as the ego is kept out of the equation by the will of our spiritual nature.

I hope heaven has pizza parlors, and little establishments with local craft beers. And jukeboxes with hits from the 50's. And good Italian ices. And drive-ins, and moonlight canoeing. And And And.............. The best of earth would be heaven enough for me.

The Iliad may be the most complex poem ever created, but its ultimate meaning, is, I think, fairly plain: if there is such a thing as justice, it is not for us, but for the gods, and if the gods should offer us a glimpse of it, it will turn out not to be what we thought it would be.

And when His blood, touched the ground, Divine light permeated the entire earth...His Mission complete, that the Son of God would henceforth reign, a living, brilliant, conscious presence, one with man, in His Father's sacred humanity. So bright was that moment, that on physical planes all else seemed dark by comparison. "It was finished, it was finished; the Divinization of man, and Glorification of God in His Creation (Hanna Jacob Doumette)". Not to be saddened...but rejoice with Christ!

As many politicians have a Machiavellian mindset, media manipulation is often used as a strategy to divert the truth, making the victim appear to be a criminal, thus, you need to have a clear mindset to avoid bias.
A perfect governance will only be achieved when a politician has nationalism in his/her heart. Only then will the needs of the citizens be prioritized. There are many public servants, but only few served with nationalistic intentions.

I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation. War is hell.—William Tecumseh Sherman
