We're All In This Together (31) - Meet Fire with Cool Waters, Not with More Fire

[Meian]

We are here and we ain't going anywhere. Including those of us who use or provide online services, and those of us with "invisible" mental health issues. Usually it is just a matter of patience through all the inevitable forward and backwards progress, though sometimes the forward motion takes place at a crawl over generations while the backwards seems to happen daily in front of our noses.

thank you, Jakuden. i appreciate this very much.

Thank you for this important reminder of what really matters if we care about change. It’s often so difficult not to walk around with a flame thrower these days (well, for me. I tend to be hot headed).

However now I’m listening to Grateful Dead blues,I wouldn’t know where to begin, but at lest I’m enjoying the ride.and at least I only see civilization afraid they may be laid to waste. I hope this makes a difference! So Jakuden is right as she rightly says those of us with invisible severe limitations, well what is or what will become of us? For me, it’s because of my wife Marjorie that I am here today, that I even am a Zen Buddhist. For me she has sheltered me, cared for me in spite of my ingratitude at times. At this point?

I really needed to hear this message today. I myself have been limiting social media. The atmosphere is so toxic with all of the anger and fighting between opposing views on the pandemic. I believe the best way to heal is through peace and the cool energy. But it is heartbreaking to see so much hate and anger. All we can do is shine the light into the world and try to see everyone's perceptive in order to understand their suffering.

Gassho,
Ekai
