[CitizensTruth] Obama as change vs. more-o-same-Empire-guy

[Kris Knight]

All great points, and thank you.  Just keeping up with the facts is  
formidable, much less having an educated opinion about things...   But  
I would also ask...in what ways can we move forward without putting so  
much energy into being steered by those in politics?  We are  
surrounded by negativity, including much coming from within our ranks  
which feeds the collective of negativity.  HOW can we withdraw our  
energy from that and INVEST our energy in redirecting outcomes TOWARD  
positive?  One initial question which on the surface seems shallow, or  
redundant, but isn't really---where do I put my money?  And where do I  
put my attention, my fascination, my gratitude?  They are all currency.
What do you fill your daily brain/mind workings with?  what is the  
ratio?  And then, what do you suppose you truly emanate to others,  
which is NOT what you do but what comes from or actually IS the  
essence of everything that makes you up, incl. every thought.  Since I  
know little about each of you and what you fill your lives with  
outside of what I read, it is difficult to know to whom I am writing  
this...but it is relevant for each of us.  For me every day.  WHAT DO  
I EMANATE INTO THE ENERGETIC WORLD???
I'D honestly like to hear more about people who are of this group  
list.  Perhaps we each are emanating much that is positively feeding  
the web of LIFE but use this group to focus on a really challenging  
aspect of LIFE on this planet.  Hal probably knows alot about each of  
us, but I know nearly nothing about most of you.  And if you think  
this is poppycock to request more info about what it is you fill your  
lives with behind the words we all read on this list, why, I wonder,  
would this seem so irrelevant or  pointless to you?  Not so much what  
you DO but what you feel you emanate out into the world when you're  
standing still...and don't be modest.  Be honest.
Right now I"m looking at an extraordinary picture of Jane Goodall,  
having eye contact with a huge gorilla that is literally holding her  
in its arms, looking at her.  WHAT they emanate is abundantly clear.   
If I looked into your eyes right now, what would I see, what would  
they tell me?  If you put your hand on me right now, what would that  
contact tell me?
