Reading this moved me deeply. Thank you for sharing so honestly. It takes real strength to walk away with your values intact, and even more to still speak from a place of clarity and love.

Your journey reminds me that not all impact happens in office some happens in the quiet after, when we choose to still care out loud. Grateful for people like you who hold the line and tell the truth.

Why are we not supposed to talk about politics. It impacts on all our lives. its uplifting to talk of love but there are very few roses without thorns. Personally, I have little time for the current political mayhem that transcends all boundaries. I too served my country for 35 years and naively didn’t question the underhand and devious antics of the vast majority of politicians For most their number one priority is to get re~elected. An ego trip for most.

My preference is to engender a culture of Harmony and Love but I’m fearful about what will happen to my grandchildren if I stay silence.

I will continue to write about what impacts on my Existence but without the intention of offending the Substack community.

I try to find the balance of flying over and not burying my head in the sand. I’m still working on that ideology, knowing I create my own reality. If we buy into social dogma and construct we often miss the greater sense of the whole. I find comfort in connecting with people here, strangers yet friends, reminding me we are one.

All beings and all knowledge are connected. Leonardo DaVinci’s 7th principle.

We are One. But that One has been fractured by MPG- Money Power and Greed. It behaves all of us to put Humpty Dumpy back together again with love and kindness. I have just posted a photo of Olivia in Notes, Jennifer
