Make love, not war.

Make love, not war.

This was the slogan from the Vietnam war in the 60’s. It drove home a core message of disparate values.

The world is coming to a boiling point (again) and the haves vs. the have nots is elevating to an unprecedented scale. I have read articles forecasting a global shift in which all of our lifestyles will rapidly decrease in favor of the elite. We are feeling it everywhere.

The best thing that came out of the 60’s was an awakened generation who were willing to question the status quo and inquire whether that was really in their best interests or not.

I leave you today with the very best spot that I have seen that is resurrecting this philosophy (and in my opinion, not a minute too soon.) Watching neighboring nations unwillingly in combat with one another is horrific for all parties. Perhaps a taste of this will remind Americans that we have much more in common with one another than disparity and allow us to find our common ground again.

I pray that this is true.

Please take the time to watch this. It is brilliant.

When I was 5 years old, I discovered that the lemon tree in the backyard + dixie cups + water and sugar and I was in business. I have been hooked on that ever since. In 1979, I borrowed $14,000 to create a brand new product... photographic greeting cards with no text on the inside, called Paradise Photography. That was the start of The Illusion Factory. Since then, The Illusion Factory has been entrusted by all of the major studios and broadcasters with the advertising and marketing of over $7 billion in filmed, live, broadcast, gaming, AR, VR and regulated gaming forms of entertainment, generating more than $100 Billion in revenue and 265 awards for creativity and technology for our clients. When I took a break from film school at UCLA to move to Hawaii, my mother did not lecture me. Instead, she took 150 of her favorite aphorisms and in her beautiful calligraphy, wrote them artistically throughout a blank journal. That is the origin of the Lessons from the Mountain series. Since then, on my journeys to the top of a mountain to watch the sunrise, I have spent countless hours contemplating words of wisdom from the sages of all races, genders and political persuasions, constantly accumulating the thoughts to guide me on my life path. I hope you enjoy my books. Please let me know your thoughts, as I highly value your feedback!
