While I know it is not the way of many in this group out of respect for the significance of certain days – in this case respect for Yeshuwa Mashiach, I make it a point to step back from political, operational, or military discussions / activities. Rest assured I’ll be back tomorrow and look forward to reconnecting then. Until then let me wish everyone including those who call themselves my enemy Happy Passover / Happy Easter.

​The Buddha taught that in life, we are often struck by two arrows. The first arrow is the actual event or pain—something we often cannot control. The second arrow is our mental reaction to it: the negative thoughts, the worry, and the "story" we tell ourselves. ​While the first arrow causes pain, the second arrow causes suffering. Buddhism teaches that we don't have to listen to that second arrow. By choosing not to feed those negative thoughts, we prevent ourselves from being struck twice. ​Wisdom from the Dhammapada (Chapter 1) ​"What we are today comes from our thoughts of yesterday, and our present thoughts build our life of tomorrow: our life is the creation of our mind. If a man speaks or acts with an impure mind, suffering follows him as the wheel follows the hoof of the ox... If a man speaks or acts with a pure mind, joy follows him as his own shadow." ​The "Gatekeeper" Approach: Choosing Your Focus ​In Buddhist practice, the mind is often compared to a house and thoughts to uninvited guests. Here is how to apply the principle of focus: - ​Recognition, Not Reception: You cannot stop a negative thought from appearing, but you are not obligated to "invite it in for tea." You can acknowledge its presence without believing its message. - ​The Power of Redirection: Instead of arguing with a bad thought (which only gives it more energy), you practice Right Mindfulness. This means gently shifting your focus back to the present moment—your breath, your body, or the task at hand. - ​Non-Identification: Buddhism teaches that you are the observer of your thoughts, not the thoughts themselves. Just as you wouldn't be upset by a storm passing outside your window, you don't have to be upset by a "stormy" thought passing through your mind.

FROM PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP WE GOT HIM! My fellow Americans, over the past several hours, the United States Military pulled off one of the most daring Search and Rescue Operations in U.S. History, for one of our incredible Crew Member Officers, who also happens to be a highly respected Colonel, and who I am thrilled to let you know is now SAFE and SOUND! This brave Warrior was behind enemy lines in the treacherous mountains of Iran, being hunted down by our enemies, who were getting closer and closer by the hour, but was never truly alone because his Commander in Chief, Secretary of War, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and fellow Warfighters were monitoring his location 24 hours a day, and diligently planning for his rescue. At my direction, the U.S. Military sent dozens of aircraft, armed with the most lethal weapons in the World, to retrieve him. He sustained injuries, but he will be just fine. 🔵 This miraculous Search and Rescue Operation comes in addition to a successful rescue of another brave Pilot, yesterday, which we did not confirm, because we did not want to jeopardize our second rescue operation. This is the first time in military memory that two U.S. Pilots have been rescued, separately, deep in Enemy Territory. WE WILL NEVER LEAVE AN AMERICAN WARFIGHTER BEHIND! The fact that we were able to pull off both of these operations, without a SINGLE American killed, or even wounded, just proves once again, that we have achieved overwhelming Air Dominance and Superiority over the Iranian skies. This is a moment that ALL Americans, Republican, Democrat, and everyone else, should be proud of and united around. We truly have the best, most professional, and lethal Military in the History of the World. GOD BLESS AMERICA, GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS, AND HAPPY EASTER TO ALL!
