Today I'm reflecting on the recent events in our world and wondering what to do next. This is a question I ask myself, and that I asked that day when I got the news about the school shooting. What is the appropriate way to respond? Is there a moment when the suffering around us becomes too much? When we can't hold it all anymore, and we retreat into our small circles of relationships and focus on the world we can see and touch and experience in the places we live? I believe that as we learn to value the goodness in our lives, we find the emotional strength to hold the pain of the world, to grieve collectively, and to recognize that no suffering outside of us or inside of us can be fixed to the accumulation of more.  Links: This reflection and practice were also published this week in The Slow Way Newsletter.
