The laughter of children is the Universal language of spirit...


Tired of hatred, ideology, parameters? Listen to the laughter of children playing in any language. It is the language of spirit. Go there... 
Xenophobia is the unreasonable or unfounded fear or hatred of foreigners or strangers or of that which is foreign or strange.

In today's world where it appears we are running out of space, food, clean water, and fuel, one thing we are not running out of is FEAR...
We are bombarded by messages of those who benefit from our fear. The spokespersons, haters on the radio, TV and other media are well paid to spout their hatred, hatred that reinforces the fears of their audience. The truth is these mouthpieces are well paid by those who want to keep in place a "Winner take all" ideology, one that says that losers are.... LOSERS!

There are no losers in God's eyes...

We need a fresh way of looking at things. Children laughing provide a map for us. They look at each meeting, each interaction, as a way to share in the fun of pure living. We can take a lesson here, and begin to look away from our fears. If we begin to see as God does, that we are all winners, ALL ONE, we can devise a new way of sharing that guarantees everyone a life of dignity, with ENOUGH; for the ample bounty of the Earth provides enough for ALL, as long as we stop the hoarding by the few at the expense of the rest...

Today when you shy away from someone or something foreign, ask yourself why. A closer look will show you how much more similar we are than you expected...
