Letter to the Editor
Controlled by fear

To the Editor,

"Be impeccable with your words, speak with integrity." "Use the power of your words in the direction of truth and love." Don't make assumptions, avoid misunderstanding, sadness and drama. "Your intent manifests through the word." "To activate fear is a powerful force." These are quotes from The Four Agreements by Don Miquel Ruiz.

We are controlled by fear and the people who control industries and Governments are the ones who have so much to gain. "One fear or doubts are planted in our mind, it created an endless drama of events/" We now face a age of terror, loss of home for many.

We see innocent lives destroyed and instead of diplomacy and truth to solve economic, differences of life styles and beliefs, we end up destroying the innocent.

Some members of the Media have no integrity, the money and the perks have influenced un-truths. No common sense or good intentions have been used to solve our many problems. It's easier to blame someone else (woman, democrats, tree huggers and the poor.) God forbid if someone speaks up against the powerful. Speak with integrity.

Just because some people don't tolerate the war, doesn't mean they don't support the troops. It's our loved ones who are in harms way. They can't bear a war that maintains the wealthy Empires. This has caused hardships for the masses, ex. Iraq, Africa and those in America who live in poverty. The money hasn't been used for education, medical and Mfg. Jobs should have been created, instead we are faced with the loss of American jobs. Greed wins again… the debt goes up.

"Be impeccable with your words." We need to think in a different light.
