Daily Kos hears us out. It is helpful because we can catalog here our care for the world around us. Starting with our own backyard, and then radiating outward, we vary in our awareness of the world around us.
Noticing the mood and atmosphere in my community of friends, family, and fellow activists, we wade in the tides of heartbreak. It's not a cheery topic, but it is our reality.
The urgency we feel is due to the sense of time running out in an era where we are hamstrung by the imbalance of awareness of our 'situation', our viability situation. We, soaked in anxiety, wish we could turn back the clock of environmental crisis to better days and options.
All we have is us. We must push forward and do our best to keep trying to educate, generate awareness and solidarity in the actions we know must be taken to push a course change in the health of societies, how we treat the environment, how we treat one another. What an assignment.
We must suddenly shed our superficial territorialism and realize our brother/sisterhood amongst all living things. What is keeping us from this? Nobody but ourselves. Trusting one another is the most dramatic hurdle, can we do this? If not now, someday soon we must! Until then, we will continue to wade in the shifting tides of heartbreak, but not just heartbreak USA, global heartbreak. Making the shift to cooperation/collaboration, truly fair sharing of responsibility and unselfish citizen-participation is the key to unlocking this pathway out of heartbreak. I vote for giving it a try. What other ideas do you have? Reaching out to you kossacks, share and help cut the path we need to take! I want to think, for the sake of those yet unborn, we can do this! HeartbreakUSA wants to smile and be at peace in a healed society, a healed planet, with a prospect of a future workable for all.
