I don’t have any interest in starting a political movement. I just want to live life and be left alone as long as I’m peaceful with others. I’m trying to figure out how to do that. If you’re interested in doing the same — and if you want to do it without the shrill and angry confrontations of politics — I hope you’ll join me in a conversation that might lead to better lives for all of us.
My own political evolution is a long and twisting story. I grew up in a generally conservative household, but I was taught to be a political independent. I also learned — from school and from my own reading — to be an intensely patriotic kid. I believed in our political leaders. I believed in the political system. I believed in the morality of this country’s role in the world.
Maybe it’s easier to do hard things when nobody says they’re difficult
Out of touch: Most politicians, media don’t understand ‘the real world’
In a cold and disconnected world, it’s very simple to fake happiness
OK, morons, we’ll finally admit it: We really are smarter than you
In an age when lies are expected, integrity matters more than ever
Love is best thing to happen to us
Starting over is a sign of strength, not a plea of weakness or failure
Living without human connection? It’s an empty life with no meaning
If you want a president to ‘run the country,’ you’re missing the point
