We’re living in two worlds simultaneously: one the fall of Rome and the other a new Renaissance. We need to be both death doulas and birth doulas, helping die peacefully the systems that need to die and helping give birth to a wholly different kind of world.

That sounds like a lot of work, Marianne!

That's a whole lot of words for saying nothing of substance.

The fall of Rome..yes, a new Renaissance..not even close.
Replying to @marwilliamson
You have an entire community of minds/hearts primed for this transition. We've had one foot in and one out of so many social conditions/routines developed in 20th century & even know the good, bad & ugly of social media. We're primed to build differently and aligned with growth

Please cease and desist on this fall of Rome shtick. It's a lot of crap. See Edward J. Watts The Eternal Decline and Fall of Rome. On the Renaissance I plead ignorance.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Has it occurred to you that this new world you are hoping for turns out to be a lot worse? Of course not, that would require critical thinking
Replying to @marwilliamson
Fine, but "a wholly different kind of world" would not be the Renaissance which gave us the glorification of wealth and power, the objectification of nature, and art as propaganda among other things.

It’s exhausting!
