Every pandemic in history has been followed by a cultural and social blossoming. This one can too, but only if we use this time to reflect on what that blossoming might look like. In the midst of the darkness that’s our slice of light.

"Historically, pandemics have forced humans to break with the past and imagine their world anew. This one is no different. It is a portal, a gateway between one world and the next."

Not in what Maria Gimbutas called Old Europe. Unless you call Germanic warriors enslaving Mediterranean goddess worshiping civilizations as "blossoming" but we cant decipher their writings Minoan Linear A so we dont really know except from the archaeological record.

I agree...but sometimes it is difficult to see what that blossoming of light might be until we are out of the thick of it...we do see people expressing so much kindness and compassion and the hero's who are helping to save lives even though their lives are in danger...LOVE!

I’m moving backwards #financially but continue to move forward in all the other areas of life (despite 🤢 at times). I see no need to stop the expansion—lived through worse than this on a personal level, some have not. Done a lot of the self-work that is now required of everyone.
