editor victoria’s comment ~ all have been impacted – some more than others. awakening helps “remove” – heal. how she describes the big city in her area is familiar to me in what i see in my own medium sized city – what it’s become. homelessness. drug addicts. streets in disrepair. crime. and just filth in pockets. societal break-down. i remember when i was in my early 20’s – living in a big city. i felt so claustrophobic – i never did “thrive” in that environment. at the time i listened to the mayor speak of his vision to see mass apartment complexes everywhere to house all of the people. MY GOD, i thought – that’s INSANE! that is when i began to speak out against city living – how it was contrary to who we really are. the human and the soul need space. quiet. nature – not just to take breaks from – but as the primary way of Being. it was that time that i saw the vision of new earth (didn’t know what i was seeing – just knew it was where i would be in the future). i have two plans – new earth/transition and the back-up plan: move away from current location to small, rural, nature. i have done had it w/suburbia/city – big AND small.
