But not from your essence,
Because that would be unkind to yourself.

Most of us have been taught that things, events or people are either good or bad, right or wrong, with us or against us, acceptable or unacceptable. We have to choose one side of the coin or the other.
We can’t have both.

Hello future me.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the wisdom and guidance you have offered me over the years, for holding true North for me this whole life.

It is really important to include yourself in that loving. If what seems to be the loving thing to do for someone else is going to leave you depleted, it is not the loving thing to do. You are no less important than anyone else. You are certainly no good to anyone burnt out! Sometimes the loving thing is to say no. You never know just what resources and creativity the other person can draw on to have their needs met, and they might never find out for themselves either if you continuously solve their problems for them.

Our society so far has been dominated by male adolescent ego consciousness, which has brought Earth to the brink of collapse and has suppressed the power and qualities of the feminine in general and women in particular.
In response to this, women have reclaimed their power and have paved the way for both women and men to embody the Divine Feminine.
Now it is time for us to take the next step, embodying the Divine Masculine, to restore balance within ourselves, in our communities and our human and natural world.
Here are my thoughts on what that could look like.

Everyone in Australia has been affected by the recent wildfires in some way or other. Some have lost everything, including a loved one, some have “only” seen the horrendous images on TV.
The initial response from people on the ground has been immediate and appropriate and practical and very much filled an immediate and obvious need.
But once the ashes settle somewhat and the initial shock wears off there is the longer-term aftermath to consider. And/or if you live in an unaffected area and you have a kind and compassionate nature, the question arises:

Whatever happened to Leisure?
Leisure is when you can choose to rest, to play, to walk in nature, to be creative, to have a bath, to read a book, to think about something in depth, to spend time with someone you love, in short, whatever nourishes and nurtures you, in body, soul, mind and/or spirit. The things you want to do because they give you pleasure, make you feel good. The things that make you feel fulfilled, the things that make you uniquely you, the gift you have to offer the world. The things that allow you to feel like a human being rather than a human doing.

“IF YOU THINK YOU ARE TOO SMALL TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, YOU HAVE NEVER SLEPT WITH A MOSQUITO. ” DALAI LAMA
We are not supposed to save the world all on our own – just our little corner of it.
