I do not know what happened at the Capitol this past week.  I wasn’t there.  Yet, I had someone very close to me tell me yesterday that it is ‘dangerous’ for me not to have a strong opinion about it.  I’ve received emails from organizations calling for me to take the moral high ground with them against other people.  The polarization continues to intensify.

So many of us believe we are the enlightened ones.  I know better, and yet still there are many parts of my personality that believe I see more clearly than the ‘others’.  I’m grateful for whatever clarity I have, and the truth is that I have no way to discern what is true across the many sources of information at my fingertips.  I have found my way through much of the censorship to channels of information that help balance the corporate information network, and yet every one of these sources is just another story.  It’s a game, and it’s deadly serious too.  If you want to know some of the information channels I’ve found just ask—I’ll share what I can.

Consider this blog—I look for subject lines that I hope will gain your attention.  I write in the hope that you will read it.  You are reading this because you have some trust, or at least curiosity, that I’m not leading you down a path of insanity.  I also almost universally point you back to your own body as a source of reliable and even spiritual information.  Here’s how I would like to do this today:

Note if your pulse rate rises when you witness information about political discourses such as elections, vaccines, climate change, wealth distribution, race, sexuality, or one of my personal favorites—our food system.  How does it feel when you get riled up?  Inside of the discomfort is there a feeling of purpose or pleasure?  Do you feel increased clarity?  

We are definitely the woke ones. 

One of my favorite teachers recently told me that she’s happy to fight with me.  I didn’t see that I wanted to fight until she pointed it out.  I didn’t see that I enjoy fighting and that it feels good to be right.  My personality believes I’m peaceful, maybe even neutral, and that’s my moral high ground.  Oh my–I believe I’m enlightened. So are you with me or against me? (LOL)
