My current obsession.

The root of the resistance.

In a recent writing class, as part of a larger exercise, we were asked to write about our current obsession.

What I wrote prompted the momentum behind today’s rebrand here on Substack.

In the spirit of vulnerability, I thought I’d share.

I’d love to hear what connects you to strength in the spirit of resisting these days.

______________________________________________________

Resistance toward peace and love. Optimism. Strengthening self. We are one.

My current obsession.

Healing the traumas of self and generations before us and tapping into the existential.

Neuroplasticity.

How we can change our entire trajectory by simply changing our perspective.

Interrupting old habits and tapes.

Questioning our truths in search for the lessons to inspire what’s next. Growth.

How we are each a part of each other as much as we are not.

And how to get those who can’t see this truth yet to see it.

How the world could be such a different place if we all understood and embraced the basic reality that our thoughts do not make us who we are, nor do they define others.

That if we could just sit with our purest self and find love there and embrace that love and bring it to everything we do, then the judgement and ignorance and hate will dissolve.

It’s inevitable.

How would things be different if we could embrace the notion that we are here on this planet to live and seek and grow and we invested our time and energy in finding connection with self, and places, and others?

Perhaps the division and judgement and hate would fade, and humanity could evolve into a community and consciousness it has not yet ever explored.

Here on this planet, not Mars.
