I totally agree, our inability to disagree with respect is scary. Almost like people can't be around people who aren't on the same page as them. Cancelled. Deleted. Or "we just don't talk about those things because we disagree," I mean, what? Why is it so hard to have a discussion with someone who has differing views to your own?

I know. And it is so sad to think about all of the amazing creative ideas and conversations not being had/not being created. I don't remember being so afraid to disagree before - but it's not the disagreeing, it's the fear of what the other person will say when they disagree that is the thing. You're right: what?!

Exactly, we're so afraid of being judged and rejected. Partly why I do the work I do!

Thank you for sharing from your heart ❤️. This is where we should all lead and speak from. I don’t want to withdraw from the world or conversation but I do want to surround myself in hope, true connections, honesty and love. I have found that reducing my news media and social media has helped me to navigate my own life with greater ease. Taking care of myself so that I can care for others has become my #1 priority. Thanks for all the support and inspiration to do this “work”. You’re the best. 😘🌸😊😉🙌🌼

Same, my friend. Same. I'm not sure that humans are very good at running things but I'm so over all the monkey business. So we don't agree...big fat hairy deal (as I used to say when I was about 12). I hope you have space to take some deep breaths and long steps away! xx
