I'm with you friend ... where I'm living mostly these days. Do you remember that day/night in Victoria at my place on Hillside (eating cinnamon buns) and you spreaking at a gig I organized
at First United. Same guy. A strong recommendation - read Daniel Quinn's "Ishmael" the best
thing I've read in long time. - "With Gorilla Gone will there be hope for man?" or "With Man Gone will there be hope for for Gorilla?" - Dale Perkins
Yes, I am caught between freaking out and trying to pull up the good and the calm within me to navigate the scary stuff that’s being thrown at us. Thanks for your words, Gretta.
I'm not sure it's a good thing. That I'm not the only one concerned, frightened for my children and theirs. As an American, I'm ashamed of my fellow citizens and what they chose and what is -- because they fear truth. I woke a few days ago with the word passion floating in the ether. Not sure what I should make of it, I pieced together some thoughts. What am I passionate about morphed into what should I be passionate about. The answer angered me. What I am passionate about is anger. I'm mourning a country I thought made me a citizen of the world. I'm angered that there is so much fear of knowledge, that just enough of these entitled savants have reversed decades of slow but steady progress towards a world order, the kind of wholistic introspection that needs to coalesce to save us from our worse enemy, ourselves.

You said it my friend- " what is within us is the only thing that can offer our best response to what is outside of us".
This Lenton journey is about reflection , renewal, transformation.
We each have a circle of influence which spreads for good or not. We are stronger than we know.
Thank you again for expressing my anguish and fugitive hope so eloquently. I couldn't find the words
Live now…. Extract from media hype. Be informed and be equipped both in soul and in living.
Of course, I remember you! Thank ypi for staying connected and the book recommend. Will look for it.
