Lovely to see this pop up in my feed and glad it's still going.

Thanks. Been too busy with work :(

I think it's important to aknowledge and even feel anger at the harm that was done to one's self, good to unite against the oppressive patriarchy. However, there is a time and a place for stillness, letting go and enlightenment.

To be a warrior of light, it helps to find ways to fight oppression while fostering powerful healing mechanisms, like the tree that grows above and so it does below.

Absolutely - I think it is about the inner state of mind. Accept what happened without souring the heart and act as appropriately and as necessary for the betterment of humanity.

Yes, nuances are like the petals of a flower, they make it look, smell and feel that much better.
