Hello patti, i am andy im 16 and my question is if you will return to Mexico soon. Your collaboration with SoundwalkCollective really touched my heart and motivated me to start a campaign at my school, but unfortunately I didn't have the fortune of meeting you! And I even made you a gift, maybe you could come to Mexico in concert since I don't know why you wouldn't give them here. That's all I love you with my soul and I feel like I know you, Sending you love!

Thank you, Patti! I always find you words so inspiring. I think of you as a wise teacher, gifting us with your point of view. Perhaps it's not so bad to get such a thoughtful and important lecture.

Patti, you are so fortunate to be able to travel to all of these great places in Europe. Wish I could. I always remember you as a rock and roll musician from NYC. Stop being elitist. I love you!

Dearest Patti,

I’m so grateful for you everyday.

And I just realized that you can substitute Kamala for Gloria, just in case anyone wants to help save the world in that way. Lots of love and eternal gratitude for your courage and artistry

Thankfully I live in Canada where there is zero gun culture. Where people can sends their kids to school without worrying about mass shootings. The US needs better leaders. Sadly Trump will most likely get back in power and he gives zero f*** about climate change and the planet. He only cares about power. He is another Putin. Just hand him a crown.

Thanks for your reporting about your travels and concerts. Also greatly appreciate your views on the violent world we live in and how we MUST come together as HUMAN BEINGS to solve our problems instead of dividing us with war. Love you!

I love your description of “A massive Third Mind”. And your words are always a comfort. In spite of every ugly, sad, and difficult situation, you remind us of how we really can make changes — without violence or hatred. I too have hope in the younger people taking hold of the beautiful truth and professing love and peace as real possibilities. Thank you for the glimpse of Brussels. And for your gentle soul.

Thank you for your pep talk. I’m going to up my game today. I’m an avid hot wheel toy collector I used sell on ebay. I’m comfortable in my rent control apartment. I’m donating my toys to 3 homeless women abused with children shelters along with clothes, things I don’t need anymore. We all need to stick together and fight whoever is behind this genocidal agenda.

Fantastic website!!!!! I appreciate all of the hard work which went into it. Please, I must stay at that hotel in Brussels. May your remaining tour continue to be as energizing as you give and receive a lot of love.

You look well and happy and thank you to all those wonderful audiences who bring their love to you and the band. So excited about the website, thank you Janine this has taken a lot of hard work and will be appreciated by many.

Then to the World. Divide and Rule, very old saying and has been used by various governments and media over recent years to very good effect. So many conflicts and war, so many people, friends and families arguing over what’s been said or reported while people especially women and children die! It breaks my heart. The environment and our wildlife totally ignored by our various governments. What to do?

Thank you for the Peace and Love you bring to us all. Much love from London 🙏

I couldn't agree more about the existential threats of climate change and violent nationalism/authoritarianism threatening our world. Those two things are our greatest problems. I also have greater faith in the youth, I am blessed to work with many Millennial and Gen Z coworkers - they give my aging heart hope.

PS A huge congratulations to you and Janine on the new website - just incredible! So inspiring! Bravo!
