I find this so powerful Alicia. I am reminded how much it matters to grow one’s soul in many ways and how necessary it is to have a combination of qualities, or energetic frequencies, to live fully in the world. It takes more than flour to have a good loaf of bread. Thank you!
Your words: “If we have empathy alone, we may become paralyzed paired with qualities that balance it. Likewise, Patience without bravery may lead to tolerating abuse of oneself or systems that abuse others on a large scale. Bravery without empathy may lead to violence and “othering” in such a way that contributes to war and conquest rather than courage leading to being willing to take risks to co-create with others a world that in which all my flourish in prosperity, peace, freedom and unity “
Thank you, deeply. I love your flour metaphor! So TRUE! Growing our souls appears to be why we are here...:) How is everything going with you? I have a thought I want to share on crypto with you, but not without your permission/invitation. Lots of love!
"sacred and capable of contributing something extraordinary"—the sacredness and infinite possibilities of each person is an important theme.
"Diversity is an expression of God, but we have so long used it to separate ourselves from one another." The concept of greeting people with “The Divine in me honors the Divine in you” is pretty darned cool.
I love all discussion of the importance of balance.
And the end, when you speak of a "place that transcends gender and gender norms, and also includes each of our unique composition of innate and cultivated attributes, without apology"—that is huge. That synthesis is symbolic of a future that I hope is coming, and that I believe is represented in people like you. A new evolution is underway—one that transcends the current partisan paradigm.
Aho to everything you wrote! "the sacredness and infinite possibilities of each person is an important theme." YES!!! Thank you for your namaste-ing and courage to honor a freedom that is beyond partisan, that is a celebration of life and diversity and the divinity in all life, with all its potential for harmony without oppression.
Thank you. I am glad and it so key to have a balance of energies. I have avoided going into Bitcoin in my blog as my main focus is personal soul transformation and I am trying to not get too deep into travel story telling or Bitcoin unless it ties into the theme of personal soul transformation pretty easily. Both are stand alone topics, and good ones. For me, they would require a separate blog I think. I am not into crypto in general although I was for a short time. For me, it is an ongoing learning curve. However, I have studied Bitcoin and of course, it was part of why I wanted to see El Salvador. Feel free to message me about it, if that is possible here.
I think it's a good boundary that you have around your focus! If you aren't into it, then it doesn't really matter. Lots of love on your journey...glad to witness your wings spreading and your strength shining so truthfully and lovingly through your words on your blog!
I have taken a deep dive into Bitcoin and continue to do so along with Nostr. So I would not say I am not into it. Bitcoin and Nostr give me hope. But already, just trying to communicate here, it becomes hard. We have to differentiate between crypto and Bitcoin. We have to dive into Nostr. We have to go into philosophies and life views that are different for everyone, likes shades in a watercolor painting. That is what I mean. All that could easily become talking about things rather than staying with the topic of energetic soul transformation and speaking from that place. It is all related and intertwined. But it could be like diving into politics or religious outlooks. I want to stay with universal energetic themes as my intention is to offer help and support with my writing and not trigger people. There is so much controversy and triggers and it is an art to wade through it all and offer words that are helpful and hopefully calming, rather than stirring the activated energies in people that are already moving so much. I hope this makes sense.
I completely celebrate your clarity. The approach you are taking is holy. It is needed. We need non-triggering places to find ourselves, to soulfully reunite within and with one another. I love your writing!
Fly me a message (you have my email since I subscribe you) if you want me to share the tidbit. It's a techi thing not an opinion or anything specific about any currency.

There is so much about this that I love.

"harmony without oppression."
Yes please.
Yes, those words felt "for you" if that makes any sense.
It does :-)

Thanks Alicia. I appreciate that so much.

I attempted that. Your email doesn’t show up fully, if I see the correct one. Hope you got it. Or just attach it here if you like.
