Pretty good read, congrats! I like the direction very much. I would add this: Stop your activism and go sing. Dance. Play with others. We have to recover healthy pleasures from celebrities. I re-watched Eric Whitacre’s 2011 Ted Talk this week…and am sending it to everyone I know to watch, again if they have already seen it. It’s on youtube. People are emailing me back about how much they miss singing in choirs and the wow factor of this creative response... you should see all these sincere people earnestly contributing their peace. Tonite where I live, there will be a community choir sing…choirs and anyone else who wants to sing; music handed out. I am going.

People are learning how to do stuff together in amazing ways…so find some, make some, do stuff together — it has a lot of energy, and make sure there is opportunity for joy, smiles, giggles to emerge. Enough of this anger and angst incitement…the way forward is through taking care of ourselves and staying with the troubles to find new relations and kin across species and places. We will all die, in the end. So play a lot until that time comes. Appreciate the gifts of others and your own, and play them as the sweetest instrument of life.
