So how do we look at the darkness in our culture right now, and turn that into positive action — without dragging ourselves down? I think that's a key skill of our times. And I want to help with that!
I've been thinking lately what a challenge it is to seek to be healthy in a toxic system. That's true whether the system is a family, company, school, group, city, or our country.
Right now, we're seeing that toxicity at the top of our political system. But I don't think that it appeared there out of thin air. Rather, it reflects poisons that have long run throughout our culture, causing harm to many people and creatures, and our precious earth.
So, yes, let's address the immediate threats we face. And also, in this blog, I want to explore some of my ideas for uprooting the deeper issues we face in all areas of our lives.
Because getting at the roots can actually be a more efficient and effective way of making changes in our collective lives!
