This suffering persists not for lack of solutions, but because enormous wealth and power are invested in maintaining the very structures that produce it. 141289499

It asks us to recognise how we've hurt & neglected generations of children, often unintentionally, through not noticing & embracing the invisible ways we pay attention, in how we process sensory input. It asks us to see we're still doing that. 18316

I can look back on my life and see, now that I know what to look for, that I've obviously always had this, but managed to just soldier on.
