You might want to read the commentary by both Anthony and Rich under my various Climate Change posts. These two men are descending much further down this particular rabbit hole. Grateful!

Over on fb, the commentary is also quite lively, with the latest from my teacher being “Go fuck yourself.” Oh my. But he’s right. Mine was (is?) a “condescending attitude.” Damn!

Is there a way to return to civilized dialogue? Or is it too late. I find myself crossing out nasty snarky comments that I’m VERY tempted to make here and elsewhere, both in response to others, and just out of the blue, during this time of extraordinary and growing turbulence on planet earth.

Question: am I going to be part of the problem? Or will I return to daily sitting meditation, in an attempt to create and maintain a zone of sanity in the face of increasing chaos.

Can I get and remain centered, no matter what?

Let’s face it. It’s such a thrill to spit out nasty words. Such an ego rush.

Okay, here goes.
