Now I can have hope, Thanks!
I am a man who has become ever more appreciative of the wisdom, power and beauty of those of our species with 2 X chromosones. My wife and I are members of an unique video club, Spiritual Cinema Cirle. It is more her doing then mine, but I have benefitted greatly from our membership. We get 2 DVDs each month that have shorts, a feature film and often a documentary. Few of us ever see shorts and they are great. It is like short stories, an enormous amount is packed into a few minutes. The feature films are usually something you will not see either and are just wonderful. And who ever saw a documentary at the theater before Michael Moore?

We got our DVDs yesterday and watched the documentary, "Walk of Wisdom." It is directed and produced by Victoria Holt and follows the work of a Buddist nun, Mae Chee Sansanee. When the film was over I felt encredible hope. The dispair that has been hoovering over me is gone. I have hope for humanity and it is not man that will save us but woman.

1. Thanks For Sharing That
The movie "Walk of Wisdom" sounds wonderful. I will have to watch it soon. :)Hope for humanity is always a welcomed and pleasant change in our current negative atmosphere.

2. If you have either broadband or a lot of patience
you can view the best in short films at http://atomfilms.shockwave.com/af/home/

They go from the truly sublime to the juvenile and ridiculous.

Happy viewing!
