First the Action then the Courage

-

Courage isn't always big brave and bold. Sometimes we have it and sometimes we don't. We feel courageous in some areas and other areas we are total wimps. Here's what I know about Courage. When you do something that you are afraid to do, you develop courage. The more you do what you're afraid to do, the less afraid you become. It spills into other areas as well. Do the thing and you shall have the power. It isn't the other away around. In other words, you don't wait until you have all the courage you need and then do something. That may take forever. You move through the fear by doing it. I recognized this happening for me. I kept saying I'm afraid so I need to work on that. I'd try and face my fears and analyze them and figure out how to make them smaller than they appeared for me but it was only really holding me back.

When you take daily inspired action in spite of feeling afraid you begin to develop the capacity for it. Courage is feeling the fear and moving through it. Susan Jeffers book "feel the free and do it anyway" I'm so grateful that I finally understand this.

Love and blessings to all,
Carrie

Trans Activism

What walks like a teen fad and talks like a teen fad...is probably a teen fad. Celebrating trans is a growing trend and something I’m not okay with. But then again, I’m not a doctor set out to make millions off confused teenagers and desperate parents. I’m not big pharma that stands to make billions off these kids and the services including endocrinologists, sexual health physicians, speech pathologists, nurses, social workers, child and adolescent psychiatrist and psychologists. I feel sorry for the parents that must navigate this with their teenagers. As if raising kids isn’t hard enough. Am I the only one?  In Abigail Shrier’s book, Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing our daughters she alerts us to the newest trend in internet support groups that indoctrinate young girls into believing gender identity as the root of all their problems.  If Shrier is right, a great many people have been complicit in practices that are proving very harmful to adolescent girls.

Exploring Climate Change

-
Climate policies must benefit people as well as the environment. Fixating on scary stories about climate change leads us to make poor decisions. One CTV news reporter posted an article recently titled, “Here’s what the era of global boiling means for Canada.” The media outlets have become activists, reinforcing the extreme language against the backdrop of these wildfires. Imposing higher taxes to alter weather patterns is not resonating positively with the public, causing it to become a point of contention. Can we at least admit that it is as much a political issue as it is an environmental one?   Differing perspectives on its causes and consequences spark heated debates worldwide. Right now, there is nothing even close to a consensus on the scope of the problem or the best way to solve it.  Am I the only One?   Greta Thunberg is the poster child for this movement, but I’d like a more credible spokesperson than this.  She is very likely to live a longer, more prosperous life than her

Unveiling the Dark Side of the World Economic Forum

The World Economic Forum (WEF) is a conference held every year in Davos, Switzerland where leaders around the world meet to address global challenges, share ideas, and promote cooperation on issues such as poverty, inequality, climate change, and technological advancements. Whether the WEF is seen as good or bad depends on individual perspectives.Opinions may differ based on political ideologies, personal beliefs, and experiences.  Supporters of the WEF argue that it plays a crucial role in fostering dialogue between various stakeholders, including governments, businesses, civil society, and academia. On the other hand, the WEF’s platform has faced criticism and argue that it primarily serves the interest of the wealthy elites and multinational corporations. The annual Davos gathering is predominantly attended by wealthy business leaders, politicians, and influential individuals, creating an exclusive environment that shuts out diverse voices and perspectives. Detractors argue
