%QUALITY LIVES LOVE FREEDOM INTERDEPENDENT INTERACT+940419

    The  quality  of our lives depends  greatly  upon  the
extent to which we focus upon:

    1.  Individual  freedom to do as we please without any
significant  consideration  given  to  the  personal   and
communal integrity of other persons and beings.

    2.  Our  interdependence  with/upon other  persons and
creatures  as  expressions  of the  cosmic  whole  in  the
process of growth and integration.

    3.  Seeking to provide for ourselves and others secure
contexts  within  which  we  are all  safely  free  to  be
vulnerable  in  open  and  honest  dialogue  and  intimate
relationships   which   are   mutually   satisfying    and
fulfilling.

    4.  Interactions  among  people  regarded  as  complex
machines operating as expressions of impersonal  objective
laws of cause and effect.

    5.  Coercive  and often violent inter-reactions  among
people   operating  as  codependent  agents  of   systemic
addictions and collusive games of mutual self deception.

    6.  Agents of some supreme power  which seeks to gain,
regain  and/or  maintain  control over the  many thoughts,
desires,     experiences,    communications,     emotions,
relationships, affections, and being of imperfect peoples-
--to  bring  them  into  conformity with the will  of  the
supreme power.

    Where we focus our attention is bound to have a  major
impact  upon what we experience and how we understand what
we  experience---and so upon the nature of reality  as  we
experience and confirm it.
