PERSONAL:
I must take this opportunity to share a few ideas I discussed in my essay collection, The World I Imagine: A creative manual for ending poverty and building peace. Chapter 10 consists of five essays detailing what it would be like if "True Justice" were practiced in our society, including applying alternatives to the death penalty. In the essay on "Ultimate Crimes," I explain why the only reason states practice execution is revenge.
Throughout the book, I explain why the only way we can look forward to a future without war and violence will be to end poverty, as well as the practice of putting people to death. Reaching those goals requires that we understand the complicated relationships between social issues and the solutions we apply to each problem.
We must make sure everything we do protects and reinforces the right of every person to education and employment to the fullest extent of their abilities and interests, and that nothing we do as a society endangers the health and safety of anyone in the world. It sounds complicated, but if we approach the problem by respecting these basic principles, we can accomplish miracles!
Join me in a vow to use our blessings, skills, and talents to build a society in which governments do not kill for revenge, a society without poverty or war in which everyone is able to enjoy at least the basic benefits of prosperity and peace.

Friday Peace Vigil, Casa Grande, AZ, and surrounding area:
PEACE VIGIL
CASA GRANDE, AZ
Friday, February 15, 2013
4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
E. McMurray Blvd. & N. Trekell Rd.
Tony Fasline (520-426-0070) will hold his weekly Peace Vigil this Friday, February 15, from 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., at the corner of E. McMurray Blvd. & N. Trekell Rd. in Casa Grande, AZ. Tony invites anyone who is interested in showing their support for ending conflict in the world to join him. Hold out positive thoughts for that!
This week:
Well, I’m still buried in everything except what I would really prefer to be doing, which is ignoring everything else as I focus completely on my writing. Ah, well. A wise person once said, Life is what happens while you’re making other plans.
On the other hand, I’m making progress on my annual financial marathon, organizing files as I switch from 2012 to 2013, readying things for taxes, and something we should do more often than we even both to think about: organizing our major financial planning for a better future during Jim’s retirement years. All you young people should get started on that task now, if you haven’t already. Your ‘golden years’ will creep up on you much faster than you can imagine, and the earlier you start making those wise moves, the more golden those years can be.
One more thing I should note here is that in a day or so, I’ll post a notice in this space, and on Facebook and Twitter, about another important progressive event that will occur here in Casa Grande once each month, at least through the cooler months of the year. The first meeting of the Pinal County chapter of Death Penalty Alternatives for Arizona will convene at 7:00 p.m. next Monday, February 18, at the clubhouse at Val Vista RV Park, 16680 W. Val Vista Blvd. Watch for my posts a couple of days or so before each monthly meeting.
