Shiva @innertalks Thanks Steve. We are tested and tempted to stray away from love but when we are steadfast with love as the guiding factor, we are well on our way to a meaningful, purposeful, and fulfilling life.

Shiva The irony is only our political leaders want wars. What use killing another for the common person who fights to live another day? They are in similar situation everywhere.

I believe this really is a part of Trump's recent "speech" to US "Admirals and Generals" in the US. Can you imagine being in a position of power in the Military and having to listen to this? Have you ever (in your own personal...

Shiva @jaylar It is taken as a weakness when other countries want to do business with the US. So better to wait for the storm to pass and things become clearer. Trade and relationship should be based on mutual respect. It is more of threats and scoring points now,...

Shiva @innertalks I have seen video clips of looting in the US where the culprits walk away as the law enforcement is lax for smaller amounts involved. Yes, some have an entitlement mentality as if they are owed a living and can have their way. Breaking laws,...

Shiva @innertalks It boils down to some are above the law - too big to be taken to task. The rest are kicked around with a guilty tag around their necks and they keep wondering whether they have any voice or say to right the blatant wrong doings.

Shiva @innertalks I find our political leaders lie through their teeth but still profess to follow their beliefs whatever they maybe to get elected. Obviously there is hypocrisy here to an extent even a child will call out "The Emperor is Naked" while the adults...

Shiva @innertalks I feel repentance is for sinning willfully. I ask more for blessings to better myself than worry about sins - to err is human comes to mind but it is not sinning. As you say "God is love", and the fear of God is overdone. I am careful with...
