Two Inspirational Videos
to Watch and Think About

O’ Caritas
by Cat Stevens – 1976

What an apocalyptic vision, set to music! This deeply affected me a few decades ago, about 1987 and at times since. “Caritas” is Latin, as are most of the words sung here, but the video provides English subtitles. The word means spiritual love or compassion. From the album, Catch Bull at Four. If by some unlikely chance you don’t already know this, THIS is what some people believe neocons are actively trying to MAKE happen. If, God forbid, the world might end somehow, let it be God’s decision in God’s own time. We don’t need people advocating the projection of American force in any manner which might by the furtherest stretch of the imagination let loose some devastation on earth. Pray that God’s love might yet save this old world.

Something to think about.

Be sure and watch both videos.

The Dance
Robert Miribal – Navaho

You are going to be surprised by this video, based on how it starts and how it “gets going” a little way into it. Think about how the Navojo culture has adapted here, away from its static tradition, as all healthy cultures must over time. If a culture does not adapt and change, it dies, like the Maya.

“He who has ears, let him hear”

Change or perish.

Will western culture change enough, soon enough?
