"When in doubt, FEEL it out!"

"An apocalyptic mess of raging wildfires, soaring unemployment, mass foreclosures and political paralysis. It's dysfunctional. It's ungovernable"- but it's MY home g-d dammit! No, seriously-are we worried, yes. But what we do *have* now is our present moment. Can you feel it? Aren't we still grounded? As far as my radar goes, I see we are firmly planted. Despite what could happen to our earth, we still have the most fertile soil in the world. Sometimes amidst all the panic and worry comes a silver lining, and we have that to always keep in mind. In Chinese Taoist Theory, a yin/yang symbol is used to represent both sides of a perfect whole.  You can not have one without the other. The Yin, feminine, the Yang, the masculine. Heaven and Earth, good and bad, black and white. You see crisis? I see opportunity. You see foreclosure, i see how to make this work? Whatever goes up, must come down. So, one might ask: is it actually what *is* happening to us or are we looking at it from darker lenses? From which lens do we use to continue to succeed no matter how low we may seem to be? How can we trust ourselves to keep this faith despite our lows and woes?

Answer: It is not in your pocket, but is under your feet! Listen to Nature-it never lies. No matter what they say in the news and media about our declining state- we can't argue with nature.
