To ban the word "judgment" -- no right wrong -- just is -- absolutely the way it's supposed to be -- no need for someone to be right & the other wrong. May we all put down our judgments, and be loving & kind to each other. I love you! Those that exclude, exclude themselves. I pray that all world leaders be returned to their Divine right minds. That all beings may take _joy_ in their lives. I pray that all peoples take time of stillness to listen to their heart's guidance before they act. I pray that peace & love be manifested for all creation. The nicest thing I heard "recently" actually happened sometime ago.
