5x any good to act?

How can I act in accordance with the greatest and highest good for all beings? I am only one person so does it do any good at all to act? Will my actions speak louder than my words and are they in alignment with my values? Where do we go from here?

There are many things I would not like to read about in the news cycle today. Here are some things have stirred my desire to recommit to the power of creative transformation today. I hope you also find some time to rest and nourish your heart wherever today finds you.

Dear men,

Dear men: don’t tell me you are a great listener, listen to me & wait for me to tell you. If I do not speak then it wasn’t for you to hear. I want to listen to you listening to me. Be patient, be open, be, just be. Your presence is more precious than your intelligence, your attention is more special than your compliments, your wisdom shines in silence. If you feel powerless give over to the currant, let my words run thru you & change you, don’t flinch or shout, it will be ok, come as you are & accept me as I am.
