Obama and Clinton: Dancing Around the Mulberry Bush

Does America owe Barack Obama the presidency because he’s black? This was the question that seemed to speak from the television screen as I watched the heartrending story on CNN of the murder, forty years ago, of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr, a man who spoke to all oppressed people everywhere.
Will electing a black president [...]

In Honor of Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr.

My “song” for Obama is an expression of my fear for the future of America should he be elected president. The only similarity between him or his preacher and Martin Luther King Jr. is the color of their skin.
By his uplifting language, Obama appeared to be taking up the spiritual message of King, but we found [...]

OBama: You Never Even Called Me by My Name

 
Well, it was all that I could do to keep from crying.
Sometimes it seemed so useless to remain.
You turned against my preacher
Just because he stomped and hollered
“G-D America is to blame!”
 
I ain’t to blame for my preacher
For the evil he planted in our hearts.
He was only preaching
To the choir of Satan’s angels
Who hide behind the [...]

Who is this man running for president of our country? Even the thought of Obama getting elected is so appalling I cannot believe he [...]

Midlife Crisis: Retrieving Your Soul

The midlife crisis is no joke, although it may look that way, to people my age who find it endearing that young people over forty are horrified when they find a gray hair. I try to remember the time when I thought forty was old, but I must’ve changed as I now consider myself to be young [...]

Spiritual Reality Of Astrology

Spiritual reality underlies our physical world. We are individual manifestations of Spirit in physical form. Like leaves blowing in the wind, loose from their mooring, we appear to be separate, but we are all connected. We are all one. If you find it hard to feel brotherly love for some of Earth’s inhabitants, don’t feel [...]

The Myth in the Race for the Presidency

“There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things.”  –  Niccolo Machiavelli The Prince (1532)

King, Kennedy and the American Revolution

All of us, from the wealthiest and most powerful of men, to the weakest and hungriest of children, share one precious possession; the name American. — Robert F. Kennedy
I’ve been thinking a lot about Bobby lately. In watching still another year end as I go further into my dotage, I’m reminded of other years from [...]

Good Morning, World

And a beautiful world it is, with the streetlight still shining on the new snow covering the old snow’s dirty tracks. As I watch from the window of my warm and cozy house the below-freezing temperature outside bothers me not at all. A friend of mine complains that her heat bill is rising, and I say [...]
