In the past few weeks I've experienced a strong desire to revisit the TV series The West Wing that ran on NBC from September 22, 1999, to May 14, 2006. Somewhat synchronously, as I began watching the show's first season on DVD, I received email notification of Weekly Vlog 137 released by Era of Peace and one of its co-founders, Patricia Cota-Robles, entitled: Holding the Sacred Space for Divine Government. (You can get more info and background on this idea in the Era of Peace newsletter published on October 2, 2019).
All of this is timely, of course, as we approach the 2020 elections, and stay informed of political events unfolding around the world. Every person on the planet has their own personal stuff to contemplate and master. Every person also lives within (or under) specific group, national and political systems, and the way each of us relates to these shared societal structures can be reflected on and worked with as well.
People -- citizens -- around the world have begun to organize to bring forth collective action and infuse new ideas into such systems. Besides Era of Peace, you can check out other efforts to upgrade Earth's political (and other) systems at these links:
The Gaiafield Project, including the Heal US events and the EarthRising Community
