Sacred Secular Identity

We all have emerged from one nutritiously multicultural heart, one sunlight into one DNA patterned and structuring rhythm compliance with resonant RNA. Predestined to remain within harmonic restraint limits, yet free within these interdependent limits to play ecopolitical WinWin healthywealth all day every day and night each in our own sacredly native nature way. Utopia is polypathically multicultural. We all know what Paradise dreams look and smell and taste and feel like to a girl baby in Africa as to an old gringo in the Americas. These are the opposite of Hell, ubiquitous monocultural excesses melting into LoseLose ecopolitical climates, regardless of where and when you land and plant and grow on Earth. What, then, are the ecopolitical merits and demerits of a social justice, much less an entire Earth Justice, that we intentionally take off the scales of value-balance when blindly thinking and speaking of criminal/victimization justice? For which of us has never lived in both landscapes, together; that of utopian benign intent and that of environmental terrorist outcomes? And when do we most need and long for justice, when we are well fed and among healthy social friendships, or when we are incarcerated, without family and friends, without good nutritional food, shared meals feeding fertile listening and speaking? If we seek ecopolitical wisdom, if we can remember what it is to be homeless, to become hungry for food and love, to be ostracized and humiliated for poverty of positive social resources, all of us remembering our moments with and among and as economic and political non-elites struggling together, like twins for evil and good, then we can co-empathically trust that our best optimal criminal/victim justice is discerned through ecological, ecopolitically balancing, peace-filling mutually mentored climates of graceful co-arising mercy. Ecopolitical justice always begins with (0)-sum Mercy! I know we're all doing the best we can but this is not yet regenerative enough! Not yet healthy enough! in-between sustainable climates for elites within all us non-elites. More explicated Interdependent polypathic regenerators are already empowering cooperatively with multicultural others, others yet implicately wending our metaphysical way toward Earth Rights as Golden Maturing PostMillennial Empty/Interdependent Regenerative Norms. Norms and rules and laws and values and climates and landscapes for healthier nutrition for elite victims of our collective pathological subclimates and non-elite self+other-victimizing criminals defying internal/external climate health's opportunities and risks, appositionally-interdependent as holonically (0) sum bicameral polypathic, co-arisingly dipolar, multiculturally eco-criminal and ego-victim alike. While it remains difficult to define both paradise and ***********, we know them both when we interdependent/empty sense them.
