"Make the picture you are looking at smaller."
This is decent advice on many levels.
"Bringing it back to the scale
of your own life is the medicine for recovering . . .
Generally speaking, our own life is complicated enough,
yet, while I think this makes good sense,
I have to ask myself if NOT paying attention
to the big picture has gotten us where we are today?
"Coming back to the scale of being human in community."
It is about humanity and community and might I add nature.
We're all living here together, doing the best we can
to survive, thrive and be decent human beings.
(Most of us are.)
If everyone could recognize and respect
each other as equals,
regardless of the scale,
we might be able to heal ourselves,
and each other and this world.
We could bring this world into healthy balance.
I believe we're in the process of doing that.
There's still a long way to go.
We can do this....together.
We ARE doing this...together.
Carry on, I say, and thank you for all you are,
and all you are becoming...for all WE are becoming.
Namaste'
