What I'm suggesting is we are going to look back, and we're going to see what happened in Syria, and we're going to see the larger destabilization of the Middle East, the rise of extremism, and we're going to wonder. . . Why didn't we at least try to force a political solution - at an acceptable cost to us, because no one is saying we should send in ground troops - and if we did it would be worse than doing nothing. . . If we do not act, we are going to look back and wonder why we didn't.

It's only a drop in the ocean - but the ocean wouldn't be the same without that drop.
The time for change is now.
Live My Life provides a much needed shot of timely, thought-provoking, musically forward, irreverence to the status quo.

This life therefore is not righteousness, but growth in righteousness, not health, but healing, not being but becoming, not rest but exercise. We are not yet what we shall be, but we are growing toward it, the process is not yet finished, but it is going on, this is not the end, but it is the road. All does not yet gleam in glory, but all is being purified.
