More propelling us to get to the family of humanity
Is it time for some hooking up?
Being out of the danger of the moment here in L.A., I’m back to the postponed second half of my SUE Speaks RETROSPECTIVE, 2023-2024 (here is Part One), of excerpts from videos I’ve passed along. I love how it came together, where it delivers what is compelling to me now.
It’s been a lot of years that I’ve been looking to how we need a fundamental change in a civilization that favors profits over human needs. Hey, I’m in good company with the messenger who told us that 2,000 years ago.
What holds us back from running the world more like a family, all connected, helping each other, is overshoot. It’s humanity’s success, from being so good at doing things, that now has us eating ourselves out of house and home. What a predicament.
Where to from here? Let’s see if anyone gets inspired about that from what you get from this!
How about it being timely now to unite? To go from talking about what’s wrong to taking action to right things? It could be MLK Jr.’s Beloved Community, that Marianne Williamson talks about, signed up for by masses of people of good will. As Marjorie Kelly says, “Those of us who do get it need to connect and build the movement that then can become a political force.” Peter Russell‘s clarity about exponential growth would give everyone a framework for thinking about what to do, and people even could get educated from an ad campaign to sell a “huge shift in our understanding, from worshipping something far distant in our heavens to participating in the sacred ground of the universe,” that Anne Baring is so articulate about. Plus, how about some instigation to trigger the model for revolutionary change that Roman Krznaric tell us accounted for the fall of the Berlin Wall?
What else? Thinking caps on, please!
PS: One of my old L.A. allies does heart-warming work with communities of volunteers who distribute donated goods to people in need. His Volunteer Collective has stepped in now for fire victims, where it “has become a critical resource for connecting much-needed volunteers to the most effective relief efforts.” Click here for what you could do.
