Money, religion, borders, Israelis, Palestinians, Iranians now.

Does anyone stop and realize this is all human imagination at work?
We're just making these conflicts up because we have thoughts.
Thoughts are all that is driving every war.
Absolut Madness.
Time to grow up and learn nonviolent communication.
And I say that as one who has a temper, gets irritated easily.
We can all learn to slow walk emotions and the rapid escalation of thought that triggers wars.
I understand there is a trillion a year in America's military spending killing and drilling around the world.
But this is public policy that is boosted by fear mongers.
The natural world has moments of violence when a lion kills a deer, but then silence. And no instant replay on the phone.
I don't have any answers. I'm a non prophet.
We keep skipping over this wisdom
“Watch your thoughts, they become words;
watch your words, they become actions;
watch your actions, they become habits;
watch your habits, they become character;
watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.”
