Are you content with reading yet another expression of anger at the those who occupy power positions...? There is need for such a voice... but does it bring solutions...?
Are you content with expressing your intentions of heartful hope for a better world...? Again... does this bring about a solution...?

I don't know about you, but the reason why I haven't participated as fully on the net and on this site as I would have hoped, is that there is a lot of expression, response, opinion, and appeal... and to what end...? And please do not read this as a person who has no hope -- for I have bags of it, stuffed in cupboards under the bed, in every crack and crevace of my home. No, what I express here, is the situation that I feel I -- dare I say WE -- are in.

What then to do...?

In my humble opinion (sigh), we need to be active locally with friends and family, and then return to places like this to share our experiences. To pass on good ideas, tips, practical assistance, and support when we no-doubt fail. If each of us brings to the community a handful of others, those around us in our real lives, then this, surely, may give us something substantial to base our hope, as we improve our skills and trust in one another.

The solutions are out there, walking about on two legs. We are the solution. We.

May I humbly offer a rather indirect solution, but because of its nature, it may work organically rather like a seed. Perhaps one day, we may have a forest...
