I very much agree with your position here Waveney – and it is so clearly articulated. The one thing I would perhaps want to stress more strongly is the role of critical self-reflection – your very last point. Absolutely we should act from the heart, and I also feel that by doing so we are, in fact, “connecting”, as heart-felt action is essentially about the spaces in between us, that sense of being in something together. Diversity and commonality come together at their extremes, like a zen-circle. I want to stress critical self-reflection because I think we must stand back from our actions from time to time and ask ourselves “what is this creating in the world?”. We must also be ready to adapt if it seems to be going awry somehow.
