This is what’s up: generation(s) to be reminded of what they know deep down, what fears are real and what are being invented & manipulated for short-term small-game profit/control. Useful to check your habit-tracks and let them lead you back to yourself. (Small times, many times.) And there, in the Heart of even the smallest flicker of recognition, the warm pulse of Instinct is alive, and what is speaking is what is rising up to save itself: Earth. Sentient Being in all of us. All of us.

Those who see that as “optimism” are perhaps naming the fierce edge of courage required to stay with what has been spoken, to stand honestly for what is described over & over in intricate, exquisite, excruciating detail: the Earth wants to Live. It will find a Way. And we are invited to participate, to support this, with every breath sent round.

Shaking off the chains of conditioned depression, of trauma-enforced forgetting, of daily desensitization to the actual potent choicepoints in the story unfolding. The unbinding of deceit & complacency. Intention giving access to the keys that re-route the nervous system toward inner listening, intuitive guidance, Earth-centered awareness. Letting it move through us.

Optimism is what it looks like, only if the immensity of Being is temporarily forgotten.

Honesty is what it sounds like when the Whole is seen for What It Is.

Peace, in Process.
