Beautifully written, so understandably valid as it makes sense for Wayne, the man with the humane caring heart could reverse aggression with kindness. So much to contemplate here. Thank you Wayne for enlightening us though so sorry for the attempt at violence towards you.

Thank you for being an inspiration and guide. I would have gotten STUCK on his threat to kill me - feeling he was wrong and that I was his victim, but you drew upon wisdom and discernment to explore and understand what triggered his threat, and to address the situation. WOW. You rock. You shine.

What a story. There is so much to be learned from it. Kindness and compassion trumps all. And, 500 push-ups a day is pretty dang impressive!

Yes!! Wonderful wayne ❤️ sorry he didn't get any letters.. I had a a similar experience with a homeless man I wanted to help. He was sent away by the occupy group I was part of. So he cursed me told me the most horrific things he would do to certain parts of me.. And a calm came over me as his saliva splashed in my face, because of the hurt I saw in his eyes.. And i just felt such compassion.. I said I really would like to help you, but if you talk like this I cant. If you continue I will have to leave for now but i will come back later. He kept yelling screaming horrible things. And I said okay, i see you are too frustrated right now, that's okay, I will be back later. And he was startled and yelled after me.. Euhmm euhm but god is with you 🤗 aweee 🌷aggression is just powerlessness.. And love respects and empowers ❤️🥳 good luck in a few hours!! Praying for your release.. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻✨

(From Dean on Wayne’s team): That’s a powerful response. That kind of nonviolence, i.e. responding to aggression with compassion, is exactly what we are trying to spread for animals and to the world. Thank you for sharing!

Hi dean, Wayne 3 months!! I see that as a win within the loss! He should be released but it could have been so much worse. They couldn't lose face.. Let's hope his compassion is spreading.. Let's hope this snowballs onto the animals. That more people realize they are sentient beings that deserve care, respect and safety..and not be in a cage.. Just like Wayne

Another beautiful story, dear Wayne, from that simple heart of yours. Because you see everything from your heart, that is how peace is created. It's been such a blessing to get to know you through your writings and your videos. My thoughts are with you as you continue dealing with this situation you've been given to experience. I look forward to continuing to read your messages and see your videos. With much love to you. You are not alone.

An amazing lesson that the world needs to listen to. In the Middle East, the forces in power seem to want a cycle of violence.

I'm sorry you need to serve another few months in jail Wayne but we will be waiting for your wise missives to help enlighten us.
