The material about collapse was critical, but it was the work on inner resilience that was most important. I see us inviting people into a process of personal and spiritual growth. Having a buddy was an important gift, while having a community to grapple with the feelings and issues that surfaced along the way. I am passionate to share this course with others. The quality of the course was breathtaking! Deep gratitude to you all! I also loved how you empowered participants to engage as openers and session facilitators.
It is not enough to weep for our lost landscapes; we have to put our hands in the earth to make ourselves whole again. Even a wounded world is feeding us. Even a wounded world holds us, giving us moments of wonder and joy. I choose joy over despair. Not because I have my head in the sand, but because joy is what the earth gives me daily and I must return the gift.
