So powerful.. Thank you David. It has to happen inside first through practicing unselfish love, compassion, kindness, and harmlessness. My heart hurts for all those being abused and enslaved by society. Still we cannot fear our brothers and sisters, we must find love in our hearts for each other, because in reality we are all ONE.
