#1 I began lecturing on A Course in Miracles in 1983. I was thirty-one years old. I was living in Los Angeles, and as anyone who was around at the time can testify, there began to be talk about a new, mysterious, and very scary disease that was spreading.

#2 I remember the pain, but I also remember the love. The people who were dying, and the people who were there to help them die peacefully, were surrounded by a community of love.

#3 I’ve seen how love can change one person, but I’ve also seen how love can change groups of people. As someone who experienced the time of the Vietnam War with the accompanying violence of the 1960s, and then the AIDs epidemic, I know what it feels like when groups of people experience a collective trauma.

#4 The American political system has been failing its citizens for years, and the election of Donald Trump proved that the American people were fed up with it. We need a more deeply human politics that includes love.
