WE STEP UP. ALL OF US. IN OUR OWN WAY. AND WE HAVE EXTRA COMPASSION FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT, FOR THEIR BURDEN IS GREAT!
We lead with the thinkers, the warriors. We lead with the peace makers. We lead with the teachers, the healers, the spiritualists, the singers, the shy, the outgoing, the doers, the activists, the moms, the dads, the children, the scientists, the workers. We lead not with whose god is right, but with right goodness. We lead with those who wish not to lead. We lead with those who do. We are the collective consciousness awakening. We all matter,the angry, the righteous, the pompous, the pious. No *one* person does more than another, or takes away more than another. All energies are accounted for. All have their application.
The ego is dismissed in lieu of purpose. Your neighbor is not your enemy. And Party Lines are not real.
We must decide if our addiction to tribal warring outweighs our need for survival.
