I am still reeling. My head and heart both hurt. I truly feel as if the world has gone mad, totally mad, and will soon spin right off its axis. I send so much love to all those who are hurting.
Taking time to be introspective, to meditate, to ruminate, to pray and to read. Estes came to mind first. Her thoughts, my thoughts...although my thoughts are mostly feelings today.
"This time is the Time for many things that it was not time for, before. Be wise. Be brave, stay strong." Clarissa Pinkola Estes.
I would add be caring, be kind, and focus on love. I truly believe that most humans are good. Some are not, clearly. I cringe when I read that the latest shooting is the "worst"...there was a best?
Humankind is hurting right now in so many ways. Can we not put aside agendas, politics, platforms and simply come together in love? Just put it all aside for a little while and find that love that is in our hearts? Yes, change is needed and must come, but just for today...? Let's not use this tragedy for anything and simply be in a loving, caring place...just for today.
Sending so much love and light to all who are in pain, and all who are suffering. There are so many.
Then stumbled on writing by Chopra:
“The only way to create peace in the world is through a shift in consciousness; to become a peacemaker yourself. Anyone can become a peacemaker. All you need to do is to go within yourself and dedicate yourself to peace in thoughts, speech, action and your relationship with others. This online course is a seven-day journey to help you embody the changes you wish to see in the world…Imagine the powerful shift that could occur in this world if you and the rest of the world made a conscious commitment to practice peace, to become a peacemaker of the world. I believe that if a hundred million people underwent a personal transformation in the direction of peace, harmony, laughter, love, kindness, joy and equanimity, the world would be transformed. This is based on simple and scientific ideas…” Deepak Chopra
In other words, it really is personal. We, each and every one of us, must be that change we wish to see in the world.
Working on my own stuff to be that change daily. Not always easy, but always necessary.
