Community building requires community healing. And what does that look like?

"Staying ‘home’ and not venturing out from our own group comes from woundedness, and stagnates our growth. To bridge means loosening our borders, not closing off to others….To bridge is to attempt community, and for that we must risk being open to personal, political, and spiritual intimacy, to risk being wounded."- Gloria Anzaldua

"Quedarse en la casa'' y no aventurarse fuera de nuestro propio grupo viene donde estamos heridos y proviene nuestro crecimiento. Para hacer puentes signifa que abriemos mas de nuestras fronteras y que no cierremos a otros… Para hacer puentes es intentar comunidad, y para eso tenemos que corre el riesgo de ser abierto a personal, político y espiritual intimidad, a correr el riesgo de ser heridos. "

Everybody is waiting for the movement to happen ! And we dont realize we are the movement. Its me and you coming together and having some honest and maybe painful truthtelling between us. But there is probably some beautiful thing we will create together as a result. I want to speak to each person in my community.Let's get the party going.

Todo el mundo está esperando a que el movimiento a ocurrir! Y nosotros no darse cuenta de que somos el movimiento. Comienza la communidad cuando usted y yo tienemos algunos conversaciones doloroso pero verdarosos . Pero es probable que algunos bellos cosas que es probablemente vamos a crear juntos . Quiero hablar con cada person en mi communidad.Vamos a comienzar esta fiesta !

Death But of course I’m Mexican

https://youtu.be/yfEQRqFo2bI?si=crySeFBafo0ClV_4

I loved this video because it bought up a lot for my friends yesterday and this morning

Death La Muerte

I keep telling people 

We are Mexican of course we think if death all the time 

It don’t matter if we shoot Herion in our veins or not, 

Us meskins think about it. Our death our beloveds and our planets death

Damn it. It’s a hobby almost. Is it an obsession. Do gringos think as much as we do? Or maybe they just don’t talk about it because it’s too impolite.

Leo said this morning, “Yeah I know I’m gonna die but I don’t have to accept it! I thought I would be dead by 25, then 35, and now 42”

I said, “It was 52 for me . I’m 65 now. Im shooting for 125. Yeah, don’t accept it.”

In this case , I like being wrong.

But now this video is about can we talk to our Dead?

Us meskins know we can and we do . But I love the science behind it. I can’t wait to see the rest.
