When the mind does not see, deep down the heart knows possibility.
And so, when we listen with the heart, we search our way into greater balance and harmony. What must happen for us to create greater happiness and well-being, and cause less suffering? Love has to flow more freely, clearly, and shared needs must be met.
When we collectively empower ourselves through the hope of transforming the way we engage politically—while meeting the pain of disempowerment that arises from our systemic exclusion from important decision-making—greater love will be freed to flow again.
Meet the pain, discover the love—simple, but not easy. We would not turn away from one another, if we did not turn away from our own heart, first.
What might support mutual understanding, harmony and safety but our collective empowerment within the context of a meaningful democracy, based on universally shared values and needs? Until we reach the stability of collective empowerment, we will continue to be affected by the imbalance, conflict and fear produced through the current system.
Widespread, all-inclusive, meaningful, participatory democracy is our only hope of lasting well-being, security and peace.
Uniting to change our world does not mean that we have to agree on everything. So, let's accept and celebrate our differences and use them creatively to realize true love and democracy.
