They’ll come to your door<br />
Dressed in their best suit<br />
Touting their belief in hand<br />
While calling you brother or sister too.<br />
<br />
Trying to sell Jesus’s to every women and man<br />
And if it’s not the Christian’s it’s the Baptists<br />
Going Praise the Lord Praise the Lord<br />
Preaching and reading and spewing their fear.<br />

I’m a Buddhist she said, did you know Jesus went to china too.<br />

On the corner or down the street<br />
Christian missionaries<br />

Trying to sway five hundred year old customs<br />

And the Christians will view this as ignorant to their cause<br />

you poor thing they’ll say let us teach you our way<br />
They’ll point to a book one of seventeen different versions<br />
Start reading the chapter of how Jesus will save your soul<br />
They will dance and prance and tell you there is no other way<br />

United Airlines had broken Dave's guitar in checked luggage. After eight months of pestering the company for compensation, he turned to his best tool-songwriting-and vowed to create a YouTube video about the incident that he hoped would garner a million views in one year. Four days after its launching, the first million people had watched "United Breaks Guitars." United stock went down 10 percent, shedding $180 million in value; Dave appeared on outlets as diverse as CNN and The View. United relented. And throughout the business world, people began to realize that "efficient" but inhuman customer-service policies had an unseen cost-brand destruction by frustrated, creative, and socially connected customers.<br />
<a href="http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=3KbY6VVpYL0&offerid=206928.10000774&type=2&subid=0" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://affiliate.hayhouse.com/IndivProd/978-1-4019-3793-5.gif" /></a><br />
"United Breaks Guitars" has become a textbook example of the new relationship between companies and their customers, and has demonstrated the power of one voice in the age of social media. It has become a benchmark in the customer-service and music industries, as well as branding and social-media circles. Today, more than 150 million people are familiar with this story.<br />
<br />
In this book, you'll hear about how Dave developed the "just do it" philosophy that made him the ideal man to take on a big corporation, what it felt like to be in the center of the media frenzy, and how he's taken his talents and become a sought-after songwriter and public speaker. And businesspeople will learn how companies should change their policies and address social-media uprisings.<br />
<br />
Since "United Breaks Guitars" emerged, nothing is the same-for consumers, for musicians, or for business. Whether you are a guitarist, a baggage handler, or a boardroom executive, this book will entertain you and remind you that we are all connected, that each of us matters, and that we all have a voice worth hearing.<br />

Best-selling author and visionary scientist Gregg Braden suggests that the hottest topics that divide us as families, cultures, and nations-seemingly disparate issues such as war, terrorism, abortion, genocide, poverty, economic collapse, climate change, and nuclear threats-are actually related. They all stem from a worldview based upon the false assumptions of an incomplete science.
The History:
The obsolete beliefs of our modern worldview have brought us to the brink of disaster and the loss of all that we cherish as a civilization. Our reluctance to accept new discoveries about our relationship to the earth, one another, and our ancient past keeps us locked into the thinking that has led to the crises threatening our lives today.
The Facts:
The scientific method allows for, and expects, new information to be revealed and assimilated into our existing beliefs. It's the updating of scientific knowledge with the new facts from new discoveries that is the key to keeping science honest, current, and meaningful.
To continue teaching science that is not supported by the new discoveries-ones based upon accepted scientific methods-is not, in fact, scientific. But this is precisely what we see happening in traditional textbooks, classrooms, and mainstream media today.
The Opportunity:
Explore for yourself the discoveries that change 150 years of scientific beliefs, yet are still not reflected in mainstream thinking, including:
· Evidence of advanced, near-ice age civilizations
· The origin of, and reasons for, war in our ancient past, and why it may become obsolete in our time
· The false assumptions of human evolution and of the Darwinian theory "Let the strongest live and the weakest die" and how this plays out in corporations, societies, warfare, and civilization today

Deep Truth reveals new discoveries that change the way we think about everything from our personal relationships to civilization itself. When the facts become clear, our choices become obvious.

though our vessels have been redesigned<br />
our souls remember every breath and stride.<br />
<br />
Like our past of distant times life unfolds before our eyes<br />
this infinite journey to heal and learn<br />
to embrace emotions within ourselves so yearned.<br />
<br />
Walking with you in the abundance of here and now<br />
I watch as your radiance captures every moment of being<br />
and like a shooting star the impression you leave is brightly seen.<br />
<br />
From our image to our name the spiritual level is the same<br />
the rhythm of our hearts and the bounty of our laughter<br />
to the lessons learned and needed as we earn to be lighted masters<br />
<span style="background-color: white;">Your heart. Your love. Your laughter. Your smile. Your touch... Your friendship</span><br />

<div>
And out of the corner of my eyes<br />
I could see your body going to the beat<br />
Swaying back and fourth grinding to the heat</div>
<br />
All the eyes where on you stripping you down<br />
<div align="left">
With drinks in their hands starring at your curvy ass<br />
You’re just throwing it around and teasing them on<br />
they look like horn dog puppies following you round</div>
<br />
<div align="left">
you’ve got that motion<br />
you’re such a tease<br />
moving like a snake tongue in the breeze<br />
cause’ your looking for one to fill the fire<br />
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
They couldn’t keep up ‘cause they were drunk<br />
guys lining up and dancing around up on the balcony looking down<br />
everyone was trying to steel a feel<br />
a flashing mirrored ball made it surreal</div>
<br />
each time a guy tried you just shook your finger no<br />
you’d smile and grin wearing that short body skin<br />
Licking your lips and throwing your hips<br />
you new what you were doing just playing the game.<br />
<br />
<div>
you’ve got that motion<br />
you’re such a tease<br />
moving like a snake tongue in the breeze<br />
cause’ your looking for one to fill the fire</div>
