Why isn't it getting through? I think spirituality has taken a horrific shot here of late. We know (or not) that love is the answer to all things human, but we're in sad shape when it comes down to the reality of that observation.

I'm keepin' my chin up and my attitude positive. It can only help if even in a very small way.

Thanks for the clip.

                                       tremendous difficulties. The global population is increasing, and our resources are being rapidly depleted. Look at the trees,
