CoSo is a mighty fine place to live. There is never a dearth of love here. The words and actions of so many here in times of individual sorrow, just prove we are each part of this treasured communal family.
Thank you for being that beacon of light in the darkness.
I've heard people complain about the the world's overpopulation...
But never have I heard any of those people offer themselves or their own children in sacrifice for their idealistic goal.
We are all in this world together and it's up to all of us to accept and respect each other. Hatred and selfishness will only carry you so far, which isn't far at all in the grand scheme of things.
You, me, we... Love, acceptance, generosity. Keep focus on the good. We are in this together.
Some residents at a senior care center, named Oak Park Place, in Wisconsin decided to share advice for Valentine's Day. Love Language.
In my view, the most wonderful aspect of CoSo is the positive energy which vibrates at a higher frequency, when a communal effort is employed to offer the gifts of peace, support, compassion, and love, towards another in need. And damn.. every time I come on CoSo, you never fail me, or any other.
It doesn't matter who is seeking- we jump in to give. It's a universal force that cannot be contained.
I love each of you so very much.
Thank you for being part of my life.
I know some of you doubt yourselves and your self worth. I want to reassure you that you are worthy. Worthy of friendship, support, kindness, concern, compassion, and love. Worthy to be alive. Worthy in your own right.
Those scars you bear, they are your life's experiences--a testament to your struggle, your strength, and your ability to not just get through, but to carry on.
Keep kicking ass! You do you so much better than anyone else ever could.
It never ceases to make my heart smile that while CoSo stimulates thoughtful contemplation and intelligent conversation through a diversity of topics, #CoSoNauts endlessly sow the seeds of love each and every day.
Each of you makes this place beautiful.

In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things, does the heart find its morning and is refreshed.

When every moment seems to bring conflicting news, all suggesting future suffering, pain, fear, and death, it's important to step out of that realm and focus your energy on those within your reach.
Hug your child. Call your parent. Help your neighbor. Donate money. Volunteer your time. Make a difference in your local community. Demonstrate love and compassion to those close to you, both emotionally and physically.
Your kindness will nurture faith in humanity, one soul at a time. 💟

As one day turns to the next..
as one year leads to another..
May each of you find a sense of belonging, the comfort of love, the warmth of undeniable solace, the exhilaration of hope, and the keen wisdom that comes from the wealth of memorable experiences.
Happy New Year, my dear ones.

I was finishing up my holiday cards and wishing I could send one to each of you. I hope you will accept this community card instead. It is my fervent wish this season brings you good tidings as you celebrate the holiday of your choice.
My lovely CoSo turkeys.. You have made a positive impact in my life and contribute to my life in some manner that makes me truly appreciative of how blessed I am to know you.
Thank you for making CoSo a truly a wonderful experience. I hope that in a similar manner I am able to return the blessings you share with me.
May you enjoy peace, friendship, commitment, support, grace, and love on this Thanksgiving Day.
Hey CoSo.. The really awesome thing about donating to CoSo via Patreon is that you can set an amount and leave it. Or if like me, you're putting two kids through college simultaneously, you can adjust it as needed for the lean budget months and raise it back up in between.
Every dollar helps J keep this place going. But obviously, the more dollars, the better. At more than $7K per month, it's a lot of money for one guy to shell out. Can you please help?
You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.

We all like to think we are fiercely independent. But it's when we give one another a little time, a little attention, a little care, and nurture the growth in each other, that we allow for the individual potentiality to bloom. It's no wonder this community is beautiful.
Listening to the news or the people featured on it can be a daunting task right now, especially if you are not a true lover of politics at even the calmest of times. It's okay. These are the days that test our fortitude to pay attention and make the hard, yet correct choices. However, remember it's healthy to take breaks. Do what you need to do!
In the meantime, know you are not alone in all this..
What's so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding?
