Out of darkness: light 

Our souls evolving forwards 

Dawn coming out of night 

Change, changes: babies become children, children grow tall, dawns become days, winter becomes spring. As we learn, we grow. Experiences grant us wisdom and insight. Often hard won wisdom. Every day we’re different. 

I’m exploring new ideas as a blogger. What interests me right now? Positivity. 

I’ve been thinking for some time that our culture focuses too much on outrage, anger and despair. Everything from our news foci to our political selections get made based upon such. We’ve become deeply divided, deeply distrustful of each other. We’ve come to a point of gridlock. Which is blamed upon the other side’s idiocy (at best) or evil intent. 

I want to focus on a different path. The current mindset has no way forward. At best, one side will temporarily gain enough if an advantage to steamroll through an agenda, fueling outrage on the opposite side. I believe there’s a better way. 

I believe we can seek out inspiration instead of outrage. That we can be motivated by this inspiration to move in a common direction. That we don’t need to gorge at the trough of outrage. 

We can embrace the power of the individual, of our ability to adapt and grow. Yet we can do so without a Pollyannaish disconnect from reality. Nor do we need to divorce the reality of societal systems dysfunctionality. 

I believe there’s a path where we can embrace humility and accept our incomplete understandings. That we can learn to love those different. 
I haven’t developed a clear vision of what that works looks like, for its quite alien from mine. We can explore it together. Shall we?
