October 5 - Grant Taylor in the New Mexican

Grant Taylor, videographer/collaborator on the "Choose To Unite" music video, wrote this letter to the editor and was published in the Santa Fe New Mexican in the Opinion section this morning:

"We are in a critical moment of 'choice' for America's destiny as a country.  As individuals, in the intensity of a crisis point, we may feel that the next step we take will lead toward either life or death.  Our country is going through the same thing.  We need to surrender all of our past beliefs, prejudices and the habitual thinking that has brought us to this crisis – all that has produced the illness, the pain, and the lack of hope.

Individuals in crisis need to surrender themselves, allowing Nature to exert itself.  We need to let in what is right, just and good, allowing wisdom to work through our bodies and spirits.  I pray that the people of our country will surrender to God and His will and let Him cast our votes for the one who will bring us less violence, peace and a more loving country."
