Football, 2012: England v. Sweden

I just had this thought, this feeling, that the Euro 2012 is just a way for Europe to deal with the karma of so many battles between people in the past. Now, we don't go to war against each other. We just play football. Karma? Still angry? I really wonder why. Not only that, but we have exported the game around the world. Why not go forward and promote much more good around the planet?

We need to focus on the great, not the nasty, bad. If we are going to get through the next couple of years, let's work together. But, we can do better.

Karma means we take responsibility for what we do, what we say, yes even what we think.

We need to "think better" and be more clever.
