Thank you, Ani.

I'd say -- we're on a journey of destiny -- and it's up us to decide where we want to go, and whether we care enough to row the boat

I started off the day with a wonderful seminar on Humanity Rising -- just some really talented and brilliant people -- especially this guy Peter Lorimer -- on "Creating a Culture of Love and Wisdom" -- which I'd say is no new age luxury, but rapidly becoming an essential-to-life necessity.

David Lorimer's presentation was world-class. He really knows his stuff -- accurate, trustworthy, inspiring

I ended up spending the entire day sitting at this computer and banging out writing and articles, mostly addressed to people and themes coming up at this Humanity Rising seminar.

I reposted an article I did for Integral Leadership Review in 2014

And I started on a kind of manifesto/design which is about how to create a politics of love and wisdom, pretty much in line with Marianne Williamson -- who this morning in a pungently simple tweet stated that "Donald Trump is a dangerous man" (and we better do something about that....)

She asks "Who will we decide to be?"

I do think I will end up pushing this. What choice do we have? I don't want it to be me (or you) to be saying next "I can't breath" (or "I'm drowning", or "I'm on fire...")

Working title

NETWORK ARCHITECTURE FOR A REVOLUTION OF LOVE

DESIGN AND MANIFESTO FOR CO-CREATIVE ORGANIZING

It's a network design -- based on circles -- organized across all sectors and regions....

And it's aimed at the impossible: major-league spirit-led social transformation.

Dunno. To put it in terms of my own personal mantra, "I think Shiva wants to do this"

thanks

A few days ago I posted, "I consciously began to “jar” myself out of my "paradise stupor.” - that was really dumb.

I've worked hard at cultivating that "stupor." It's called "bliss." I've changed my mind about, "Feeling the pain" and "Harnessing my fear and being a hero" (with PTSD). I don't think they're very good ideas and I'm not going to choose them anymore.

I seem to recall Ilya Prigogine: "Small islands of coherence on the periphery of a sea in chaos, can cause the entire system to jump and repattern at a higher order." To me, we're emerging onto the evolutionary frontier of planetary consciousness.

What do YOU see as the journey we are on?
