I greatly appreciate the list. Resist, yes, but also create. I agree with you that both are critical. I'm back writing another poetry collection that reinforces the life force while also swiping at this admin's atrocities. It's vital that we create the world we prefer to live, even an improved version of what has been prior to this admin. Thrive, yes! Thank you for your words.
you just changed my whole frame of mine and now I’m going for a walk out in nature because of it. You just help me breathe again. I don’t know what I would do without your words. Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for being alive and writing and helping in a time where I go from terror to anger to furious rage to calmness when I read something that you write and writers like you.
Thank you, Rob, for holding the tension of these polarities, of both life giving wonder and joy, and grief, sorrow and devastation for all we are witnessing in this dark time. I'm finally getting the importance of managing attention in ways that will foster expansion of consciousness and deep connection. Elbows up, as the Canadians say.
Thank you. This is what I choose: "I refuse to let despair colonize my imagination. I safeguard my capacity for wonder and keep training my eyes to notice the everyday rebellions of beauty."
Thank you for the hope you continue to offer while calling out the evil being perpetrated daily and on a global level thereby keeping us alert and fanning our internal fires of resistance. Thank you for reminding us of our humanity and power.
I love your writing. I wasn’t going to read yet another ‘this is the end’ post but I’m so glad I did because it led to the beauty of pronoia. I’m so curious … your writing reads like human writing. Is it so? With everyone churning out AI written stuff, I’m getting paranoid. I so want this to be the poetry of your unique mind …
I asked another of my favourite authors and he said yes, he did use AI. Not for the whole thing but to organise his thoughts. I somehow wasn’t expecting that response. He saw it as no issue. He’s a brilliant scientist. We’re in new territory as humans and as writers. I don’t know how to navigate it any more than the next person.
JEAN'NE like out of the lamp here. Cancer Sun Libra rising, Pisces moon. You nailed this one. The voice of wisdom and all about solutions and keeping the peace but taking no shit. Your time to shine Rob. Love your tarot. Is there a dove of peace on every card? Love you and keep on making my day!

You always find the words I need
THANK YOU.
Thank you for all the reminders
Thank you again and again 💝
Beautiful
🧡
I love this post, Rob. And I love your tarot deck! I look forward to when it IS published so I can purchase it.
I’m saving this post so I can come back to it if I forget to seek the beauty, joy, and benevolence, and begin sinking into despair again. 🖤
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Deep gratitude for your writing.
I love your tarot card art did you paint them yourself.

So sad that you feel the urge to ask that

I understand your sadness. I’m sad too.
