How do you prevent yourself from feeling like, and perpetuating, the idea that you are an unhinged lunatic, with a tinfoil hat because you start seeing how fucked up the world is and how already invasive the government is, and it's fucking scary? I do NOT want to go back to covering my eyes and ears, going la la la, nothing to see here everything is fine. It's not. It's huge. It's too much for one person alone to handle or do much about on the grandscale of things. I also don't want to be crushed by the heavy cogs of the machine either. Fuck that shit! So... how to balance / carry everything, and resist being crushed?
-community?
-sacred space to share grief about the world ?(not a political aguments, but a cathartic holding space place).
-start small at something?

Do you try and talk about this with others or do you have to let them wake up in their own time? Maybe this part is the part that makes me fear being seen as bat-shit crazy?

Arghhh!

First they came...

.."the poetic form of a 1946 post-war confessional prose by the German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984). It is about the silent complicity of German intellectuals and clergy following the Nazis' rise to power and subsequent incremental purging of their chosen targets, group after group." - Wikipedia

Examine how you feel about persecution, when you will feel or if you do feel guilt, who would repentance help when it is too late, what does solidarity with your fellow humans mean to you, and do you feel a personal responsibility to anyone you do not know, should you feel a responsibility, and would you want people to stand up for you if you needed it? Examine your privileges.

A reminder to care for other people, ideally everyone, even when decisions do not directly affect you. Sometimes those in power will win a little, take some more, then keep coming back until they have truly everything and no one has anything left. Love others as you love yourself, treat others as you wish to be treated, and stand up for others as you wish someone would stand up for you. humanity

Watch out for each other.
Love everyone and forgive everyone,
including yourself.
Forgive your anger.
Forgive your guilt.
Your shame. Your sadness.
Embrace and open up your love,
your joy, your truth,
and most especially
your heart.

MVP Summit 2023 ✨

Yeah, I've just arranged my travel for the in-person MVP Summit. 🥰

I am looking forward to meet many old and make new friends, to learn and to network with Microsoft, MVPs and RDs on campus. 🤝

Not expecting the same attendee party like 10 years ago but we will surely have some fun as well.

Who else is coming to Redmond? 🙌
