Reason To Celebrate

I overheard you say you are planning a big celebration for later this year, when Trump is defeated for re-election. I am ready to be invited, if you would be so kind to reverse your motives to celebrating positive alternatives. I have an uncomfortable memory that celebrating the former regime's end feels alarmingly Trumpian, rather than introducing a new 2020 green deal healthier wealth for everyone. It is this negative anger growing to more negative fear that most defeats our capacity to touch each other with mutual trust, democratic health, civil trust in a wealthier future together than climatically apart. Earth yields some clues warmly regarding necessary and sufficient ingredients for a healthy swamp, a positive capital co-investment, an economically resilient, politically resonant, multiculturally effective democracy. Stuckness She does not choose to celebrate. MotherEarth and EarthMothers of all regenerations vacuum up and sweep out intolerance. A competitive model of capital extraction rooted in devouring our own habitat, our own win or lose militarized young, our Earth's pathological neglect, is incompatible antithetical to a resiliently healthy eco-democracy recomposing our own healthy born win/win expectant left with right, not left v right, children. Healthy robust systems are cooperatively owned and multiculturally managed and polyculturally celebrated by organic nurturers of ego/eco-resonance, left and right deep bicameral learning nutrients, informed by Earth's democratic history of multiculturing nutrition, life, warm truths and trusts, integral ways and ego/eco-democratic robust means Bicameral Bilateral intelligence Binomial double-bound not not pro-green transitional great reweaving manifestations, inaugurations, cooperatively-owned celebrations leaving no one behind, Not even straight white male narcissists, emotionally wounded children of all ages and parties, naked emperors seeking sycophantic celebrants.
