This bird knows what it is doing, where it is, what is going on. This bird knows what its business is and is about it to the fullest extent of its being.

Jesus died at the hands of The Establishment embodied in the High Priest Joseph Caiaphas who saw Jesus as an enemy of the High Priestly way of doing things.

Finding and living out of our center, our core, our foundation is the essence of integrity and the guiding principle of our life. Is it Me, or is it Not-me?
