i feel i must also add a little justification to avoid what may inevitably be questioned of me. being taoist and buddhist, i feel is important. the distinctions are small although their is perhaps a good measure of history, of bad feeling towards the other school of thought. i feel they are both simple, easy to apply and hold great wisdom and steering for humanity in these times.
i would like to offer a simple message to those who need guidance
long and short measure each other
difficult and easy overcome each other
its duality. we need not get involved as such with good and bad, they most often contain the other, and contain EACH other, and finally they are each other, each requiring the other to exist.
for example, you may have had a hard year. you know you have a year of college ahead. this seems long and arduous. then you learn your friend is doing 2 years. suddenly one year is nothing when you put yourself in their position. the same would be true of your friend, and someone doing a long university course.
so do not fear in these times and be pulled around by your emotions and perceptions of good and bad. we must simply practice unconditional love, and mindfullness. training the mind is not easy. you will need determination and motivation. but there is a good heart ready to be set alight once more in all of our hearts. truth, simplicity, groundedness and selflessness will crush the tyranny that just a few men exact on us. do not let them take your mind. we are energy before we are these bodies, though they provide us with a vehicle for spiritual growth and the joys of life and senses. do not abuse them. honor them, and honor right practices. in time you will awake to your true nature and love will grow.

peace be with each of us, and every one of us.
