Hey humanity, how’s about we grow up? At this stage of Marianne Williamson’s campaign for President, let’s get in a mode where we consider what she’s talking about and not get into arguments about voting for her. Twitter is ablaze with people screaming that they will be voting for her or not voting for her; instead, let’s listen to her.
Great post, Suzanne. I've been following her posts, and I'm on board as best I can be. She speaks out language, which is Truth based upon Love, Respect and Kindness...the teachings of the Masters of all great religions. It's time we got in alignment or, as Joseph Campbell wrote, "The ants will inherit the Earth."
I went to a couple of Marianne's rally/meeting events in Carlsbad and Oceanside during the 2020 campaign.
I always liked her and still do, however as a candidate, her refusal to answer questions from the crowd was something I found unfortunate, especially as she was among a crowd of "friendlies."
I am glad her ideas are being presented. I like her and I want her voice and the voices of some other underexposed people as to be represented in the conversation. 👍🏽
Her stock in trade has been lecturing and she's always taken questions but whatever was going on for that tour should have been handled better. You know, she speaks without notes and never loses her place and always swings back at the end to how she started, as if it all had been carefully crafted. There were years when she lectured five nights a week. We didn't talk about her methodologies, but I've heard she'd open The Course in Miracles back stage and that page provided her subject. It was an astonishing show. We met when she called to to say I'd written the best fan letter she ever got and we went on to be friends.
And where the ideas come from. Some of hers are original and very much a function of female values and understandings. But even more important is the spirit of cooperation and fairness and altruism and compassion that she is coming from which could change the whole country in fundamental ways.
I had no idea she was one of the reasons that Project Angel food exist, which is awesome. This is a good collection of things to show the other side that the press isn’t. Certainly is a good rebuttal, hopefully kindness wins.
People don't take her anywhere near seriously enough. She has done an enormous amount of good in the world that would be hard for any other candidate to match.
I'm not even thinking that far, as the way our system is set up, where Biden won't entertain debates, removes the only chance she has to be heard across the political spectrum so everyone at least knows about her. For now, she's out there talking up a storm and let's encourage listening to her.
I love your message and am glad I clicked the link you shared yesterday during the Win with Marianne Zoom call. The purest and loudest message I got from your article was that it's time to listen...just listen to Marianne's message. We don't need to decide whether to vote for her our not. We still have weeks before even the primaries begin. You've inspired me to share my article or series of articles on Marianne, starting with an interview article that I wrote and was published in 1997 when she wrote The Healing of America. I remember thinking after the interview, 'now that's a woman I would vote to become our President' and now we all may have the opportunity—but we don't need to rush it. Our job right now is to listen and to invite our network to do the same. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
I am certainly in favor of having Marianne Williamson in some capacity at the White House, but maybe not as President right away. She would be great as a VP or some position in the Cabinet for starters.

Right on!
So true

Great to hear from Wendy that there's another side. Hopefully it can gain traction and people can start focusing back on her ideas

Thanks, Suzanne, for highlighting her. It is unfortunate that there won't be any Democrat debates so that her message can be heard by many.
