Island Wisdom

Thank you Rob for posting this. Being the eternal optimist that I am I truly believe that we humans will heed this wake up call and change our ways after this pandemic runs its course. The fact that globally countries are working together for the most part and succeeding with slowing the virus should enable us to now deal with the more crucial impact that climate change and our past behaviour has had on this planet. When it is all said and done I feel that this entire experience could bring about really positive change but we need leaders who are willing and able to change their focus.
Alas I fear these leaders are sorely lacking the most glaring being in the USA.
However this virus and we hope the human virus in the Whitehouse will end. and then we can begin....
My thought to the person who wants topics to "start an argument to liven up the boring board."
Rather than that I suggest we report some positive change we hear about or a thoughtful gesture that you received or an experience in nature that has returned during our lockdown. Arguing about things during these times truly feels counterproductive to me.
Time for the positive people to rise up and be heard.
When I first arrived in Zihua there were monkeys in the mango trees on los Gatas. of course there was also a turtle processing factory in Zihua!!! so some things fail but others improve.
Stay healthy everyone. We shall get though this and I hope make the necessary changes collectively as we move forward.
Namaste

My positive nature experience. The sea lions and seals returned by the droves in the north west pacific in time for the anchovy run this week and the number of sea lions and seals feasting were higher than anyone has ever witnessed. Mother ocean takes a breath.
