You know what makes me really mad?
(and there's alot in this big bright beautiful world that makes me mad unfortunantly)
Sexism
And the image of violent masculinity
The whole adversarial relationship between people who want and need.
(the things that anger the most are the things we don't like in ourselves)
I also feel inspired by truth seekers.
There are very good people doing very good things to help. That's important.
And I have heard from very successful, meaningful people that they became what they are by knowing what they wanted. I am left wishing I didn't just want to be finally happy. And wish I knew what I really needed to want.
That is most likely the most important problem right now and has been for a few years. If only my eyes would slow down and see.
But I'm so good at moving slowly, I need to learn to live slowly. I know how quickly winter will be gone and spring will thaw again.
This could go on for a very long time.
