Most of the time we pay little or no attention to these structures of ideas, behavior and experience. When we do, it is often because we discover that somewhere else “they” do things differently. They speak funny. They have weird ideas. They think foolish things. If we are alert, and lucky, we may then wonder why “we” think what we do, why we do the things we do. And in that moment we can see the glimmer of our freedom. There are other ways to be human!” — Tom Cheetham, How to Change Your World References: https://www.tomcheetham.com Green Man, Earth Angel: The Prophetic Tradition and the Battle for the Soul of the World https://tomcheetham.substack.com ___________________________ 🔥 SUPPORT & SOUL WORK Join the pack on Patreon: http://patreon.com/howlinthewilderness Depth Counseling with Brian James…
