I'm on beutiful Corfu Greece -- where the old fortress reminds us that we humans have a violent, greedy history of creating a Death Economy based on warfare and materialistic greed. Time to embrace the beauty of the wonderful planet that is our home and love it and all life!

I'm in Bath Eng on my way to participate in the Local Futures Summit in Bristol. Visiting the ancient Roman baths in Bath, I'm reminded of how empires always collapse. Hmmm, history seems to repeat itself!

Some of the worst things in history have been done by people who said they were trying to do "good." We need to be careful of our actions as they have far-reaching consequences for our world.

We can all take different paths – ones that give us each personal satisfaction; when we all head in the same direction, toward a Life Economy, we change our lives and the world.

We've convinced ourselves that running the race to have greater wealth and power will make us happy, but we're now waking up to these lies and realizing that pursuing peace and spiritual prosperity for the world is the true answer to happiness. Our leaders need to wake up, too.
