1/ I’m trending tonight because people are mocking a clip of my conversation with Jim Cameron where I told him about a conversation I had with some peace activists in the Middle East. There’s a line in Avatar about how the Mother does not take sides, just wants to restore balance

2/ I told Jim it was a very powerful moment & people in the room were nodding their heads. I told him that some of them told me they had seen Avatar. So the pseudo-intellectuals are having a hoot about that tonight, that I’m so naïve see, so ridiculous, so wacky & unsophisticated

3/ It’s much like when I said the PM of New Zealand would be my first call as president. “Oh she’s so stupid.” Like when I said we should pay reparations, or see our healthcare system as a sickness care system, or realize the scourge of environmental injustice. Such a silly girl!

4/ Well I have this to say about the Middle East. Our political establishment has not solved the problem, and it will not be solved on the level of the green line or traditional diplomacy or military action. It will only be solved on the level of the heart.

5/ There are people there who know this, who live ever day w/ pain & fear beyond what any of us can imagine. Sincere Muslims, Christians & Jews who do not laugh at the thought that they need a miracle. I do not apologize for telling that story. It’s not ridiculous; it’s important

Amen and Amen. Thank you for the extraordinary courage to put forth such ideals in a world that has lost some of the dimensions of the soul, g. <3

Screw them--original thinkers are always faced w. critics. Just remember Gandhi's quote: "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win” Congrats you're on step 2. The 'win' is near :)

They just don’t get you bc there are so few like you. Having listened to hundreds of hours of your talks on ACIM, I know how gifted you are at making analogies that evoke a genuine shift in ppls perception of real life issues. 1/3

BDS is a tool for bringing peace to the middle east. When I was in college it ended Apartheid in South Africa.

Mocking is easy, and that kind of response is part of the problem. Take comfort that what you say is correct. There will be no peace until everyone, no matter who, are treated with dignity and respect.

Just be you. I enjoy your tweets and your insights!
