I began observing the world around me at a very young age. Ever since then, I've known that something is very wrong with the way life is lived on this beautiful, violent planet on which we find ourselves. Some of us are artists, musicians, intellectuals, scientists, helping professionals of all kinds—people who live in a reality in which sharing images, sounds, insights, thoughts, knowledge, healing and empathy with others appears to be a driving force. People who affirm and nurture the souls of those with whom they share life on earth. A great many of us lead simple lives, working hard to survive and provide for our loved ones; people who live in a reality in which their labor provides for the needs and desires of others through their work; people who live their lives largely unseen, unnoticed, and unappreciated by their fellows. People who make the world a safer place for others with their enormous contributions of the labor that enables the survival of humanity as a whole. But then we also have the scammers and the grifters; the woman-hating misogynists; the rapists, murderers, domestic abusers, and bullies; the shooters, terrorists, and war mongers, and the vicious gossipers, the verbal assaulters, whose words wound the souls of others—people who live in a very different reality from those who care for humankind; people who live in a reality in which a wide range of violent behaviors meant to control and harm others, rather than caring for them, is seen as the means to survival.
