We need capacity
Huge capacity
Heart capacity
To trade control for mystery
In the face of collapse
Knowing our biases, re-activities, and escape hatches
While anxiety and hopelessness colonize around us
Acknowledging our past transgressions, reaching past regrets, to the freedom of truth
While blame and shame are weaponized
Being present and clear eyed, regardless of failing outcomes
While society grasps at any salvation and conducts business as usual
Realizing that marketing tragic horror and false hope is big business
And society is buying
.
Let global change spark inner change
Sourced from, and connected to, Pachamama, cosmos, and life
Knowing our aliveness is in our increasing sensitivity
Letting our love grow and show; despite our depth of grief
Being willing to know suffering
While making meaning, and doing our impeccable best
Living from conscience, not from desire
Endings are hard
Faithful witnesses are scarce
