I’m wondering…how many people care about wondering?
Isn’t wondering a fundamentally different disposition than what we feel mostly surrounding us right now…especially regarding the election tomorrow? Not so much about the outcome (though, who can avoid wondering about that, too?), as about the things that have gotten us to this state.
What dynamics are truly in play (within our hearts, within our society)? Could we truly contemplate that; take the time to listen to ourselves, to each other? To wonder if we have been co-opted by those appealing to our most basic instincts? To wonder how the system is offering us both benefits (money, tangible comforts, etc.) and serious liabilities (stress, conspiracy-based self-preservation strategies, societal-wide anxieties)? To stop long enough to consider how it will 'roll' us, unless we come to sensibilities that address our true needs as human-beings sharing this planet?
You have to wonder....
