The levels of being
Our life comprises three levels, the body, the spirit and the soul.
None of these three levels is better or more sacred than the others. All are equally important and none of these three levels are perfect unless all three are perfect. It is neither right nor noble to live only for the soul and to deny the body and the spirit. And it is just as wrong to only live for the spirit and to deny the body or the soul.

Prepare for the rising crime
Prepare for a post-lock down summer of crime and expect an increase in violence on Britain’s streets when restrictions are eased
Police have said they are concerned that an increase in violent crime by younger unemployed men and gangs looking to reclaim their turf will follow the relaxation of lock down measures.
A 'toxic mix' of young men out of work, public gatherings being permitted again and later, the opening of licensed venues such as pubs and clubs will cause this.
We should be particularly worried about public order offences, antisocial behaviour and alcohol-fuelled violence.
When lock down is over, drug dealing and gang fighting will increase again.
The impact the corona virus has had on the economy could well result in a more volatile and agitated society.
Crime figures could also spike post-lock down as evidence of domestic violence, child sexual exploitation and other crimes committed during the lowdown come to light.
In recession you see an increase in the lower end of crime. For example, acquisitive crime might rise because people steal to feed themselves.
They say, police forces are taking the common sense approach of planning for increase in crimes as restrictions are relaxed.
Are you prepared?
