RE: Are You Comfortable!

I think there's merit in asking those tough questions, but perhaps overwhelming for many and feels judgmental? I'm thinking it's perhaps more productive to offer solutions and alternatives and to tell our own stories of how and why we choose differently? The doom and gloom of "the world is falling" can be disabling and create a "fuck you, it's all broken anyway" response that isn't helpful.

Great that you're reflecting. How do we begin engaging with solutions, options and simple steps forward for people who are beginning to join this new paradigm?

Yes of course it comes across as judgemental, I am also aiming this at myself. My posts are usually a lot more positive and talk about the alternatives but ever now and again things like this need to be said, there are so many on here that are actively doing something yourself included, indeed the revolution has been going on for sometime xx

Judging yourself isn't required. Assessment and discernment and gentle steps forward together maybe better? If judgement and overwhelm close people down into despondency, maybe they're better sidestepped?
