Peace

[H2O Man]

34. I hear you!

Yes, I do! I share those exact concerns. And since Trump especially, everything moves faster and more out of control. Many decades ago, a Wisdom Keeper from the Lakota Nation told me that when things begin to spin out of control in the outside world, it is essential to go inside one's self. I'll never forget her words.

Part of my maternal ancestors were from Ukraine. I find myself thinking of the rich history and goodness of that region, and how unconscious human beings are attempting to destroy that while slaughtering those people. The same blood that flows through my veins flows through their's, although one need not be related by any more than their humanity to be horrified by the war crimes we see daily.

I keep in mind that, had the Trump cult been successful in stealing the elections, our country would not be assisting the people of Ukraine today. That's an essential positive that I try to keep in mind.

Another is the stark reality that if enough people here do not find inner peace, and then act upon it, this country will further decay. Indeed, it will determine if we are a failed species or not -- surely an open question at this point in time.
