Yes...I agree. I've been here for 7 years now, and can honestly say.... I have met some of the kindest and caring people in my life. And we are the new normal. If only the world would catch on, ... those immortal words: ...'what a wonderful world it would be'....
You're so right. And yes, we're the new normal. I think it's because we have humane hearts in a harsh society.I'm just a little scared of the rest out there who have no feelings.
Well, shore up your boundaries....I think the next coming months and years are going to be a very bumpy, unpredictable ride, and we need each other's support more than ever. The world has changed....and I would have thought after the pandemic it would have changed for the better.... I was wrong, I'm sorry to say. We will all have to be more selective about keeping our safe space ...even safer. But we are survivors.... and I can only hope for some sense of sanity some day in the world....but greed, ignorance, intolerance, and bigotry unfortunately have reared their ugly heads again for the worst, and humanity and compassion are scarce, even in countries I thought would have finally put that in the past....But if we stay above the social stigma, and refuse to let anyone make you feel less than...and never give your power away...we can have hope still...take the small wins.
You are so right, wise one! I am very in touch with what you're saying and I worry for my kids and granddaughter.
I really believe that a humane society requires that we raise children in a more connected way. We really need to give parents the option and financial support to raise their own children. And let those kids grow up less institutionally and more naturally and compassionately.
This conversation encouraged me to post about my worst fear, which I just did.
I think this negative and dark time isn't sustainable and it's going to implode on itself eventually. But in the meantime, your advice is the best thing we can do.
Sadly, I think your right, but with the lost generation or two, who have been living their lives on their cell phones in a fantasy world...they don't grasp the gravity of the reality of how life is going to change for them now in this new regime, it's no longer only a reality show or youtube influencers. And like in the 60's... when people rebelled against all the things that are now in play again...bigotry, misogyny, intolerance, racism, dictatorship, and no separation between church and state...meaning, if you don't goose step to their tune...your marginalized.... We have lots of new babies in our growing family circle, and I too fear for them in this coming 'New World Order'..... I'm glad I'm on my last years on this planet.... I did my bit, voted, petitioned, peacefully protested war, supported marginalized groups, and broke a lot of glass ceilings for women in the work force.....all for nothing.
