Earth’s Rights: A Sentient System Deserving Protection

The idea that the planet should have rights isn’t just a philosophical debate—it’s a necessary step toward protecting the very systems that sustain life. If corporations, which are human-made legal entities, can have rights, then surely the Earth, which gives us air, water, food, and shelter, deserves at least the same level of legal protection.Continue reading “Earth’s Rights: A Sentient System Deserving Protection”

You are part of a living system

The way we treat each other in everyday life is like the building blocks of the whole world. If we build with kindness, honesty, and respect, we create strong, safe places to live. But if we build with fear, anger, and shutting people out, we create walls that trap us and make the world harderContinue reading “You are part of a living system”

Are you a Globalist? (if you are reading this, you probably already are. Welcome, the world has been waiting for you.)

How This Version of Globalism Differs from Traditional Globalism Traditional globalism is often associated with economic globalization, where multinational corporations and international institutions (e.g., the UN, IMF, World Bank) promote free trade, open markets, and economic integration. This version is hierarchical, profit-driven, and controlled by elites, leading to corporate dominance, economic inequality, and environmental exploitation.Continue reading “Are you a Globalist?

The Gnostic Repair Model: A Restorative Alternative to Classical Gnosis

The Gnostic Repair Model: A Restorative Alternative to Classical Gnosis Heaven is not a future destination – it is right here, waiting for us to build it together now. Abstract Traditional Gnosticism portrays the material world as a false reality, a fragmented illusion created by the Demiurge, with salvation found through transcending the material andContinue reading “The Gnostic Repair Model: A Restorative Alternative to Classical Gnosis”

Memes

Today I don’t have the energy to write down my thoughts, they are moving too quickly and there are too many of them. Here are some related memes instead:

the 100th monkey has woken up

When the 100th monkey wakes up, the paradigm shifts. The “Hundredth Monkey Effect” is a metaphor for the tipping point in collective consciousness—a moment when an idea, behavior, or realization reaches a critical mass and spreads instantaneously across a population. In this context, when the 100th monkey “wakes up,” it signifies that enough individuals haveContinue reading “the 100th monkey has woken up”

Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP): A Model for Long-Term Stability, Not Disruption

Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP): A Model for Long-Term Stability, Not Disruption In a world increasingly defined by political polarization, economic volatility, and social fragmentation, the question of how to create lasting stability is more urgent than ever. Traditional governance models—rooted in hierarchical control, coercion-based stability, and conflict suppression—have proven to be unsustainable in the longContinue reading “Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP): A Model for Long-Term Stability, Not Disruption”

Restorative Systems Movement (RSM): A Unified Framework for Systemic Healing, Climate Justice, and Social Transformation

Restorative Systems Movement (RSM): A Unified Framework for Systemic Healing, Climate Justice, and Social Transformation The Restorative Systems Movement (RSM) integrates all my frameworks—Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP), Disability-Inclusive Governance (DIGERA), Restorative Eco-Activism, Spiral City Models, and Trauma-Informed Systems Change—into a single activist movement. This movement envisions a world where systemic transformation is rooted in healing,Continue reading “Restorative Systems Movement (RSM): A Unified Framework for Systemic Healing, Climate Justice, and Social Transformation”

Eco-Activism as a Form of Restorative Cohesion

The Gaia Hypothesis, which proposes that the Earth functions much as our bodies do to maintain homeostasis, was formulated in the mid-1960s, by James Lovelock, an atmospheric scientist, and Lynn Margulis, a microbiologist.  This theory was startling to some as it suggests the idea that the Earth is a single, living entity; that she isContinue reading “Eco-Activism as a Form of Restorative Cohesion”

From Fragmentation to Wholeness: A New Way to Live, Love, and Build Together

From Fragmentation to Wholeness: A New Way to Live, Love, and Build Together I used to believe that healing was an individual journey—something I had to figure out on my own, like assembling a puzzle with missing pieces. But the more I studied attachment theory, nervous system regulation, and the ways trauma embeds itself intoContinue reading “From Fragmentation to Wholeness: A New Way to Live, Love, and Build Together”
