A Mending Manifesto

MEND like your life depends on it. Because it does. 

Wherever you place your attention,

that thing increases

 This is the first principle you grasp once you realize your thoughts form your world

 

In the US, our attention fueled a hateful misogynist demagogue

We were disgusted, yet we thought about nothing else

We gave that creature our power

(This is happening the world over)

Now switch off the news

Look away

MEND INSTEAD

 

Mending is a metaphor

Mending is practical

Mending is menditation

Mending is powerful

 

 OF COURSE WE MUST FIGHT


But also: love, sew, talk

"The News" is only one reality

Deepest power is not in politics

 

Let's raise the universal feminine

The scorned domestic arena

Home of the whole world

Racism

Fear

Hatred

Bigotry

Misogyny

This is not normal

This is not OK

 

Let's repair it

stitch by stitch

WAKE UP!
