| I don’t believe in “owning” knowledge. Too many people and too many organizations have too many times used knowledge as power over others. We are all people and we all have the right to knowledge. Fortunately for me, I’m not the only one that feels this way. The copyleft movement describes my feelings perfectly. |

| Everyone is looking for “the one” who will be a partner for life. Some even feel that they are looking for a lost soul counterpart, their other half somewhere here on the earth like a needle in a haystack. Many believe that human beings are meant to mate for life. However, I am not so sure about that. I think perhaps that idea could be erroneous, and maybe it is in fact a rare contract that only happens to a few. I don’t believe the long-term “mates for life” applies to all of us. I’m sure we all get our chance to experience that in our reincarnational cycle, but is it meant to be in every lifetime that we find “the one” and stay together for life? If so, then most of us have missed the mark! |

| It is the plague of our forefathers, ancestors and legends of history to have not known enough for their own time. We may look at John Lennon, Gandhi, and Jesus Christ adoringly from our seat here in the Present, but we often follow up with "only if". |
