It feels like swimming against the current sometimes, trying to connect back with the Signal. It helps knowing that others feel the same.

It does, my mind instantly goes to finding Nemo "just keep swimming" and the salmon.

Feelings are a driving force to source .. imho .. When we surrender ourselves to navigating through them .. clarity and inner knowing .. hopefully, guides us into better versions of ourselves..

This is a beautiful expression of

sitting with one’s feelings.

Anger and grief, sorrow.. regret .. uhg.. how I dislike playing in those emotional fields .. but I do .. and I always learn .. and in turn , I’m a better helper, giver, and receiver ..

I agree, "feelings are a driving force". I fear too many people run from them today given all the different ways we can distract ourselves and escape into various forms of media and consumption.

Where does that leave us if we are afraid and choose to hide from what may be the guide toward self progress/growth?

Thank you.

I know that when I, personally .. choose to bury my emotions .. in lieu of feeling.. expressing .. learning from .. I tend to hit some self destruct buttons .. it feels like a de-evolution of self .. so, to answer your question.. It leaves us numb.. apathetic .. and tapped into the fight or flight behaviors.. most likely .. uninspired by our driving force and instead obsessed with trivial mood fillers .. human behavior is friggen bizarre .. I used to think a lot about how beautiful the world shoulda coulda have been if we meshed our cultures instead of conquering and crushing the peaceful ones .. there is so much tribal and spiritual philosophy we have traded for a completely unfair and biased class system.. Humanity could use our imagination as a whole to rearrange into a fair system . That takes leaders and people .. working together ..It takes mass blood sweat tears and sacrifice .. as of now .. we are just fucked ..
