Power Sources

Some see power as personal, feel light as intimate belonging, interpersonal hope and faith and love. For these, life's experience and memory are theologically driven from above, explained, hoped for, and feared when lost, abandoned neglected repeatedly abused. Others hear power as planetary evolution, sometimes climaxing in intense revolutions of painful loss and gainful passion within nature/spirit nonduality Transcending autonomous ego-body/mind association and dissociation. For these, love's compassion and losses are ecologically embedded, reiterated, actively hoped for, And feared economic and political and ultimate individuating risk of fading through fragile depressed eco-unlogical despair and suppressed political terror about co-passioning Earth's mortality, As if this personal Goddess could someday die while humanity claims Rapture elsewhere.
