There is a shift happening. However, there is much of the old paradigm model that must also shift, which is what we are going through now. Out of our greatest struggles comes our most profound revelations and cause for change for a better place from where we were to where we are going. "We are One" concept does not mean we lose our individual indentities but that we acknowledge and accept all of our identities as equal and valid. We are the multitude expressions of the one great idea… Life. Thanks for sharing this, Ian. It's so perfect for right now.

Fantastic video. The USA is definitely going through a transformation. Unfortunately (or fortunately), other countries are getting caught up in it. Perhaps will think about what is truly important. I know have. Perhaps this is why I have not connected with anyone in AZ. I signed up with Meetup.com to make some new friends. However, most of the Meetup groups are centered around drinking and eating — two American staples.

I like the part about staying out of the supermarkets on the weekend. Many people (Americans) search for instant gratification from material things. When those items disappear, they feel like it's the end of the world. Now wonder our country is going through a tumultuous period. Maybe we'll wake up…hopefully sooner than later!

My favourite quote, "When we do not want to share our world, the only thing left is fundametalism." That goes for both sides of any conflict.
