Favorite Quotes: “Knowing love I shall allow all things to come and go to be as supple as the wind and take everything that comes with great courage” (from ‘Kama Sutra’ film). This was my promise to Dennis during our marriage ceremony, knowing the beauty and enormity of the path of our life that lay ahead.
Awakening
From a family (grandmother, mother, me and now my husband Dennis) of Librans, the symbol for which is the scales, my mother and I always joked that we spent our lives in constant flux in search of balance but rarely finding it. Librans, in this constant seeking for justice, appreciate fully moments of beauty and opportunity in every experience that allude to balance and justice.
It is said in physics that every action causes a reaction. Similar too is the concept of Karma. These can be understood to be the material and spiritual laws of balance. When they are translated into our day to day life experiences, every action indeed causes a reaction, a karmic narrative. To awaken vision and to touch balance in Justice's scales, we must introduce sincere reflection between the phases of action and reaction.
That which we focus upon, we draw to us and make manifest.
I speak to the urgent responsibility that each of us has to break out of our cocoon of complacency; to reflect, rise up and transform. Each of us has the power to create the lives we long to live; create the economic systems that will give rise to environmental sustainability, justice, equity and prosperity; create a country we are truly proud of and the world we want to live in as fully awakened interconnected beings. This is far too great a task to leave to others to create for us.
We have the power to change the world because the future is a place of limitless possibilities for us to call forth. We are the power to change the world. In a democracy individuals are the balance of power. We are the checks and balances. It is our responsibility to redirect the course of our nation, through truth and compassion. By reflecting upon cause and affect, revering otherness in being and doing, honoring others as aspects of ourselves, we recognize how that which is within us gives manifest to that which we create in the world.
With every action causing a reaction, extreme situations give rise to the most powerful opportunities for transformational change through revisiting of the foundations upon which we have constructed the stories of our lives with the balancing of the aspirations we have for ourselves and our families and our world. On the verge of a created nuclear war in the Middle East, ecological and economic breakdown, there truly is no better time to change the course of the future!
It is time to start the search and find out how are we can be true patriots by addressing the crimes and betrayals against America's own ideals yet in their name. We must language our hearts to a new compassionate vocabulary; create an investigative dialogue that rediscovers the inner vision of our nation's founding mothers and fathers, and provide the space in ourselves and in our lives to create a newer world. We have the power to do so, we just have to declare our commitment to our new vision and create it.
Dear Elizabeth, Thank you for your friendship, and for all you do for the betterment of life on our planet. You and Dennis inspire me. May you be forever blessed with the magic of love, and your strong sense of humanity. Madison Area Weed Warrior

You and Dennis should organize a fund-raising concert in Cleveland full of musicians that support your politics. Nina Hagen springs to mind immediately!
If you threaten a bank be prepared to end up like Blagojevich! How easily we forget, how easily we can be controlled and manipulated !! Is it me or did we forget that on the very next day after Blagojevich announced to the world press that He would literally REMOVE, (KICK OUT) BANK OF AMERICA from his state they (the powers that be) exposed the tapes accusing Blagojevich of these crimes. How convenient, especially when this crime is nothing compared to the crimes that have already been committed by the White House and all the Banks after that, non restricted bail out from the banks that we handed so freely over to. The immediate action towards Blagojevich (on the very next day) destroying his name and position as Governor only sent out a message to everyone else, IF YOU MESS WITH THE BANKS YOU WILL GET SCREWED ! And we allowed it ! Didn't anyone notice that on the next day there was no mention of the bank incident, I mean this man was going to kick out Bank of America from his state, that takes balls!!! And I give him credit for that. He took on the banks and we allowed him to get destroyed by the banks (maybe if they killed Him the next day it would have been more obvious, and we might have paid more attention.) And now sadly, everyone will be afraid (terrified) to EVER "take on" the banks !!!NOW IT SEEMS THAT WE ARE ALL SCREWED!!! So be afraid be very afraid. This has been a public announcement from your corporate banking affiliate. PS. For bringing this to your attention, if something happens to me you will know why,...I hope, unless you are all still asleep!
Thank you Elizabeth for adding me. You and Dennis are heroes to me and are one of the reasons why I went Vegan. Heed my words, Dennis will be President!
