THIS IS THE WAY: An N95 masked bicyclist, The Phantom Menace and the problem with pride

Have you ever felt anger, hatred or contempt toward someone? What about a total stranger? If you hadn’t, you might not be a human being. Just something to consider. This episode of Beltway Banthas: This Is The Way, is a reflection on loving your enemies. Not such an easy thing to do, and we don’t have all the answers, but you can start with addressing your Pride. Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace has a wonderful message on pride, humility, power, and contempt. Queen Padme Amidala Naberrie offers a masterclass in humility and healing the wounds of contempt on her planet, by making peace with the Gungans’ leader, Boss Nass.
