Revolutionary Optimism: is the conviction that our evolution -- individually, as a community, as a society, and as a world -- moves forward in fits and starts, through struggle, AND that Justice, Equality and Freedom can prevail over exploitation, oppression and tyranny, even if we can't see it right now.
We are all part of this massive transformation: the birthing of a new world where compassion and justice rule. This evolution is being met with outside resistance, which can be scary to see and live through. Taking Action is the remedy for our fear and inertia. Activism is Love in Action. It can take many forms. This "loving doing", is a form of social healing. It's how we heal the world while healing ourselves.
In this gathering, we will explore:
- how to keep ourselves strong and centered,
- how to connect with others to plant seeds for the world we want,
- how to find the acts that light us up and inspire our greatest creativity and most courageous actions, and
- how to choose our personal "next step" for stepping into our role as healer and as activist for Justice.
All you need to bring is a Loving Heart and maybe a notebook and writing utensil.
