Friends, wanted to share this new piece from the movement.

"Love is the felt experience of connection to another being. An economist says 'more for you is less for me.' But the lover knows that more of you is more for me too. If you love somebody their happiness is your happiness. Their pain is your pain. Your sense of self expands to include other beings. This shift of consciousness is universal in everybody, 99% and 1%."

CHARLES EISENSTEIN is a teacher, speaker, and writer focusing on themes of civilization, consciousness, money, and human cultural evolution.

Maybe, but how do most supporters of OWS really feel about the notion of revolution? My hunch is that while the innitiators of OWS and its most articulate advocates are true revolutionaries, the vast majority of OWS supporters either view the notion of revolution as hyperbole or with some anxious amusement.
