I was just journaling about this (Uvalde shooting massacre) and similar events. The question, for me, started with how do I respond? what is arising with me? R Brand asks: how to heal?
Healing (presumptuous?) a culture, or changing the course of a culture, seems a big task for little ol' me.
But one moment at a time is something I can do. Like planting a garden, one sows seeds and then tends those plants. What seeds are being planted and nurtured?
In addition to healing self (accepting, loving self), I often return to the mantra: where is love in this moment? where is the love in these unexpected places? Just by shifting my awareness to this question, my energy changes.
"Healing the world" may be accomplished through one loving interaction at a time, one smile at a time, one understanding gesture at a time, one kindness at a time, ... this loving energy passes from being to being to being ...
Love could be contagious: it can spread from one person to another person and then those two people spread it to seven other people and so on ... kind of like the law of squaring or doubling that Ra refers to.
This "contagious" love starts at home, so to speak, with a being's choice in a moment: what do I wish to be in this moment?
