It is a strange time in history and as I continue to look more closely at what is happening with the movement I am not quite sure of what to make of all of the different groups, entities, individuals, and egos that have come to make up our community.  Where did all of this come from and why is it that we cannot seem to get over the petty bullshit and work well together?  Why is it that we cannot learn to come more closely together and work with each other to create real change?

It takes a lot of people to make a world and a lot of people to make a movement run effectively. There are resources that must be shared to create a stronger force for the common good and it is imperative that we begin to have a dialogue about how the collective energy of the many people can come together to make miracles happen.  We must begin developing more effective means of gathering, taking action, and supporting one another. We must begin to understand that we are only as good as our weakest point and that we must lift one another up and educate the many people in this movement to create a more unified and organized movement.

Progress is never easy.  It is going to take a lot of understanding and humility for many of the people to overcome obstacles and hurt feelings that are rampant throughout this community. We must learn to find places where we can agree to start to make a difference and press on in a more collective manner,  The voice of many rings much louder than the voice of a few.  That seems to be where our movement is now. Several groups of a few that sometimes are able to make enough noise to accomplish individual goals, but leave the bigger picture to be desired for all.

 I would hope that we can begin to find ourselves on a path of greatness through greater understanding of each others individual and mutual goals and desires. We must find a neutral ground in which to organize effectively and begin learning how we can all use our individual power for the greater good. Let me know if you have any ideas.
