The Visionary: Born January 20, 1946, in Missoula, Montana. David Lynch is a master of surreal cinema, blending horror, comedy, and the bizarre into unforgettable art.

It is with deep regret that we, his family, announce the passing of the man and the artist, David Lynch. We would appreciate some privacy at this time. There’s a big hole in the world now that he’s no longer with us. But, as he would say, “Keep your eye on the donut and not on the hole.”
It’s a beautiful day with golden sunshine and blue skies all the way.

This means vigilance—not just against the world's evils but also against our own failings. We're called to shine a light on darkness, to confront wickedness wherever we find it, even within ourselves.
This vigilance extends to how we govern, do business, and live our lives with integrity and compassion. And yes, it must reach into the voting booth, where our choices reflect our values.
How do we ensure our beliefs shape every aspect of our lives, including our civic duties?

View MorePeople often choose to remain uninformed about complex issues, possibly because ignorance can feel like a respite from problems. This mindset is easily exploited by political movements, including those advocating for reduced personal freedoms, such as socialism and communism. These ideologies can gain traction by either leveraging ignorance or by distorting information.
However, it's important to recognize that the use of misinformation is not confined to any single political system but is a pervasive human issue. The antidote to this exploitation lies in education and the cultivation of a culture that values critical thinking and personal freedom.
Historically, various political systems, including communism, have capitalized on ignorance or manipulated information to maintain power. This tactic isn't unique to communism; many ideologies thrive on misinformation or the absence of information.
The critical response to this challenge is clear: education and the promotion of critical thinking are essential to counteract these tendencies.
