#DoTheWork and what is the work? #BeKind #HelpOthers #ReduceHarms #BeContent #ShowLove
This season it is more important than ever to reach out and help your neighbors as best you can. Anything you can spare in the way of money or time or attention. Just being there to listen and console is often the greatest gift you can give.

Now that's scary! Inferring causation from correlation is the logical fallacy of assuming that because two variables are related, one must be the cause of the other. #CriticalThinking #DoTheWork #Halloween #ScienceIsFun #logic

Well said. #DoTheWork
I really worry anger is obscuring the good, the decent and the utterly beautiful.

The people we’re (rightfully) angry at, see the world as ugly, people as threatening and I worry about becoming them.

Up for a good fight?

Prove them wrong and add the good, decent and utterly beautiful.

When people disappoint you with their behavior and actions, it’s easy to lose yourself in the negativity. Don't dwell on the brown spots. Cut them out, discard them, and enjoy the rest of the apple. Then tend the garden as a whole to reap better fruit!

A person that is unwilling to ever admit when they are wrong will never learn from their mistakes. It is a good idea not to trust their judgement or opinion.

We all know that if it talks and acts like a duck, then it is probably a duck. But also, some will mimic a duck to attract ducks for personal gain. These people are not ducks, it is true, but they ARE in the duck business.

If you are in with racist, homo/xeno/transphobes, you are complicit.

If you find you're concerned with things that don't affect you or others, just take a deep breath and with a stern inner voice repeat the mantra "mind your own fucking business" as many times as necessary.

Calling down peace and gratitude is actively seeking and embracing a state of calm and appreciation. It involves consciously choosing to focus on positive aspects and expressing thanks for just being while consciously detaching from negative thoughts and worries. Take a break, breathe.

Celebrating the success of billionaires in a system rigged by and for them is like celebrating an elderly billionaire who consistently wins golf tournaments at the courses he owns.

Pathologically cheating to hoard resources is an illness. Celebrating this illness is also a sickness.

Anger is an important and valuable emotion, but how it's expressed and managed determines its impact. Healthy anger is: short-lived feelings, clear communication, and a sense of resolution. Unhealthy anger: intense rage, difficulty letting go, and potential harm to oneself and others.

It's ok not to know something, just commit to learning. It's ok to be wrong, just commit to correction. Even when taking a wrongful action, you can own up to your mistake and actively work to make amends. Life's journey is a series of learning opportunities. Work towards being better.

In times of hardship, extending grace–understanding, compassion, and forgiveness–isn't just a kindness, but a necessary act of empathy and resilience. Recognizing that everyone is struggling, even if it's not outwardly apparent, helps foster a more supportive and understanding community. #DoTheWork

How do you counter cruelty with #kindness, overcome division with #connection, and affect #balance in inequity with simple actions? #volunteer. Join a group cleaning up your neighborhood or help pass out groceries at a food bank. Look up #local nonprofits and ask them how you can help! #DoTheWork

Loneliness is linked to poorer health, as well as reduced quality of life. Cultivating healthy connections is essential for our overall well-being.
Reach out and pitch in to build up your community. Start small and watch that love and support grow beyond you.

The supreme mystery of #despotism, its prop and stay, is to keep men in a state of deception, and with the specious title of #religion to cloak the fear by which they must be held in check, so that they will fight for their servitude as if for salvation.

Bullying is a method of social dominance that is effective in the short term. It relies on the domino effect. This social manipulation is stopped by collective action. Make the reaction bigger than the action. #solidarity will always defeat #authoritarianism. #resist #BeHeard #DoTheWork

In dealing with sustained stress and danger, we suffer. Empathy fatigue, like depression, is a protective reaction to this suffering. Due to neglecting ourselves in favor of caring for others. In this, reject the temptation to isolate. Practice #awareness #balance and #connection as a balm.

Constantly fighting #overstimulation and #negativity triggers the mind’s defenses, #depression and #anxiety. Working to switch from a self-centered perspective to a compassionate one increases self-worth. Helping others makes you feel better! When one is better, we’re all better. #DoTheWork

Humans are natural multitaskers. We are wired to be able to nurture and love and then, in an instant, turn to savagely protect. You can continue finding #joy and spreading #love in your life while also fighting to protect your rights, your culture, and your life.

Nonduality emphasizes the absence of separation between things. It's a way of being in the world that involves feeling connected to #everyone and #everything and that the sense of being separate is an illusion created by the mind. It is less emotional activation and more grounding in #reality.

In environments of constant volatility, #CriticalThinking is replaced by #reactivity; instead of analyzing information and considering different perspectives before making a decision, we impulsively react to situations based on emotions or stimuli, without fully evaluating the consequences.

Philanthropy comes from the Greek word philanthrōpos, meaning the "love of humanity". It is the act of sharing resources with others in need. It is the opposite of agressively hoarding resources and attacking all you think want to steal it from you. #love and #acceptance versus #isolation and #hate.

#Christians, the rich and powerful have taken over your faith and turned it into a weapon of #corruption. Reject them and their oppressive agenda. Make #kindness, #love, #forgiveness, and #honesty central to your #faith once more.
