Inside Voices

Why do I need to keep all my inside voices speaking nicely with each other? Expressing positive attitude, gratitude for grace and curious outside opportunity feels much too positive to me. It's a robust Ego requirement, An inside health and safety regulation. That sounds like a federated government requirement to open the door so outdoor voices can tell me how to be grateful for their underwhelming help. Exactly. OK. That is sooo inside only useless lack of information. What I'm trying to ask is WHY are interdependent and resilient ecotherapeutic voices an Ego-governing requirement? Because this is a health democracy, not a chaos anarchy, which requires not feeding and watering your elitist inside pathologies, anti-matriarchal and racist and generally xenophobic through germaphobic deep dark isolating unsustainable fear and anger and active distrusting Voices. That may be left and all right but I never meant to take inside or outside voices all that seriously or to hurt hurting green people or sacred animals or deeply rooted plants with Them, except maybe the mosquitoes and the weeds. It may be that elitist human ego attitudes have more in common with blood-sucking parasitic swarming mosquitoes, and wealth-extracting monocultural weed patches of run-away overpopulated lack of viably balanced consumer/producer economies and ecotherapies than any of the other insects and edible and more ornamentally beautiful-voiced plants. You make Egos and governing regulators sound like an infested parasitic thing. Not at all my intent. These are, at our best, cooperative health facilitators. Allies of all our multiculturing inside voices singing therapeutically enriching harmonies danced with full mindbody resilience all across Earth's reforesting healing re-enchanted skin. Why, again, do we want to hear all our outside voices speaking cooperatively with each other? Taking slow-grown peaceful turns singing and dancing through multicultural green-line grace
