Just being made aware that we are “vulnerable to attack” does not constitute a “terrorist act”.
It is sometimes said that there is a thin line between love and hate. Both are powerful, strongly felt emotions – you’d think might not have much else in common. Yet, it is not uncommon for people to come to love who or what they once hated or to hate who or what they once loved.
The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference, apathy, and fear! In most ways, anything that is NOT love is a “call” (and need) for it. Yet, where and when there is fear (or hate), it often seems as if there is no room for love – no matter how much it may be needed (or desired).
Evolution is inevitable – but to evolve often involves some discomfort.
Comfort Zones are often not all that “comfortable”. A better term might be Familiar Zones. What is familiar is like home. Home is where people usually like to go and return to – especially when they are tired and/or just want to relax and be less “conscious” for a while. What we consider home is in many ways just a habit.
There is a lot of talk today about “deficits” (and what is perceived and proclaimed as “lacking”, or “not enough”, in some way). Most people are aware of a growing “budget deficit” and increasing “attention deficit”. But, is there really a deficit (problem) at all – or just a difficulty in our default definition, distribution, and allocation of assets and resources?
