Thanks for this reminder, Charles, of how important we all are to each other's sanity. You're right that sanity is a group project, and I know for sure that my sanity has been deeply enhanced by the love, wisdom and kindness of the NAAS group that I am a part of. And the recent gathering that we just had in Asheville, NC was a huge injection of all the above! Thanks for being there with us, Charles. Your presence and the way you are just yourself, without any polish, is so refreshing to me that it brings tears to my eyes just to see it. Your whole way of being is such a foil to the sleek lies that posture as wisdom these days that I find myself constantly coming back to it as a baseline of what reality really looks like. This is what keeps me sane and helps me navigate the treacherous waters of our drowning world. So thanks for this invitation. I think I might have been one of the first ones to sign up already, but I'm happy to see this invitation out there for other wonderful beings to join in this endeavor. I am sending blessings and much gratitude to both you and Patsy for creating this solid ground for us in these shaky times.

Great work, Charles! Love the train digression. Keeping it “real.”

Toxic narratives, insanity, crazy thinking - it's all too tempting in our media saturated world.

Thanks for making a space for our humanity to hold us together in reverence and dignity for the gifts of daily living. All aboard?!
