They may associate it with Obama?  Could they associate it with Bob Dylan’s lyrics..by the way, how crazy is it that after our country makes public enemies #1 & #2: Osama and Hussein, how nuts that our president’s name is B. Hussein Obama?  That is an extrodinary coincidence.  I digress.

The reason I’m writing now is to tell you something about change, the kind of change that I’m talking about.  I have this set of thoughts, negative thoughts.  Something happened to me and it left a scar on my mind and my mind constantly goes to thoughts about it.  On the other hand, there is a certain thought that I consciously want to be thinking all the time.  So it dawned on me – just now – that when the bad thought comes, I’m going to use it as a flag, that now, think the good thought.  I’m not going to even associate with the bad thought.  I’m going to see it pop up in my head and it will be a sign to think my good thought.

That’s good change.

It sounds like a lie.  It sounds like a dream.  It sounds ridiculous.

Yes, yes & yes. We’re all self-centered egoists (whether you admit it or not).  But some of us found other self-centered egoists who have found out through trial and error that in connecting above these egos, we can find something …. something out of this world.  So in a small group of a few hundred thousand, maybe a couple million around the world – we practice.  8000 of us gathered in Tel Aviv last week – 10′s of 1000′s more were virtually connected.
