Asking “what can I learn?” from situations is a great way to step out if the situation and just sit with it. Thats been great for me to stay grounded in stressful times. Thanks for sharing this!
Good read. It’s a timely reminder of my fallibility and fragile ego! I know there is more to it than being ‘woke’ to the ‘realities’ of ego-driven action - culture wars including a war on women and fragmentation of society along political and sociocultural fault lines: this stuff is happening, too. Things are geared towards making us self-centred and pliable.

It really helps dial down the emotional intensity of a situation and consider alternative perspectives. Thanks for reading!
Very helpful and I wish I could have read this years ago, but then again I would not have probably registered. I was not ready to understand it.
I’m glad you found it when it was helpful to you!

I appreciated the immediate jump into the "is this me? What do I do?" section. Great post!
Thanks for reading!
