In a way, the race is on.
Will the 100th human awaken
to our Oneness as a species
on this planet and bring about
the transformation of our
collective consciousness
that enlightened visionaries
have dreamed, written and
'preached' about in a huge
body of work from the ancient
of days to contemporary text...
before one of the monkey tribes
blow the entire planet up?
Either way, a new script
will be written.
I'm lining up with the optimists.
One Love,
Jeff
