Clear -eyed, aura described so this reader could see. Reading your words is immersion into horror and the love of peaceful protest. Is there an end in sight?
Even if/when ICE leaves MN, there is a long road in front of us to clean up the mess they left...and to guide the rest of the country in resistance. I may have the power to see auras, but I cannot see the future. What I can see is that the auras of the fierce love resistance are so much stronger than the power-addicts...and I believe the addicts are self-destructing at a faster rate now.
A very different and insightful perspective. Thank you for sharing. You have a beautiful writing style that powerfully and compellingly illustrates your points.
thank you. I've wanted to be a writer since I was seven years old. been practicing that for a lot of years. Only these last few months does it really feel like I am a real writer.
You are so right that power is an addiction and love is the antidote.
I’ve been trying to expose the corruption in education, which is also about power and an administrator joined my group because they had turned on him. I asked him what got you to lie and do the horrible things to children and parents and he said power. “ I walked around that school feeling so powerful.” That stuck in my brain as the core issue. It’s hard for those of us who are about love, not power, to even get their motive.
Love is the goal but not the solution.
Since the solution for addiction is rejection, forcing the addict to stop, peaceful rejection makes sense. So many people showing up and saying no it’s not ok is what worked.
Such a wonderful piece, TeriLeigh! And so heartfelt. I can feel your energy and passion in this. I so agree with you that power is like a drug and is addictive. I love how you bring in the network of loving resistance with the mycelial network of support. Love always wins in the end, so they say. Love is a verb, they also say. And your words and involvment are, perhaps, one strand of the mycelial network, expanding, growing, spreading and loving fiercely. Thanks for your work on feeding the gaps in need.
Wait, is that already a thing? 🤯 I thought you were it, or we just made it up, and also I’m just a huge fan of mycelium, LOL, well, I guess we're part of it now in spirit, at least.
So beautifully said Teri. Yes the mycelial network of support you all have created in Minnesota is a life affirming model of love that will need to be magnified across the country in order to counter the current addictive behaviour of abusers of power. Bless you and bless the people of Minnesota.
Teri - This was GOOD. Really well written piece about this horrible proliferation of dark forces in the world. You are so true about this addiction and power thing - it's integral. We've all known in the UK Andrew was a wrong 'un a long time back. Chopra's involvement sadly comes with not that much of a surprise either (a mate of mine always thought there something odd about him and he was defo correct). Keep up your great work . Take care, John
What a brilliant and beautiful post, Teri! I can’t see auras the way you can, but I am absolutely sensitive to the voracious hunger for power you describe. It’s like this gross, oily film on my skin that I can’t wash off. {shudders}
I can also sense the coming implosion, as more and more power addicts start to glitch. The fallout is going to be awful, but you’re absolutely right that we can survive it as long as we remember to love and support each other fiercely. ❤️

This one made me verklempt. Thank you your wise perspective. Our fierce love will overcome the power mongers every time.
verklempt...what a powerful word!

We need you smiling.

thank you Eddie. Your words always give me happies.
Much Fierce Love 💙 to you and yours from your St. Coud Comrades, what we do without your reports from the MMNN Minneapolis Mycelial 🍄 News Network ?!
Wow! That’s an honor. I like MMNN!

Love this 💖 let's grow! 🪴
I've done a little research on how the forest rebuilds after the fire, and it is absolutely beautiful...and faster than we imagine it would be.
