This Throwback Thursday, we’re revisiting one of our favorite episodes featuring long-time collaborators Parker Palmer and Carrie Newcomer. Parker is a celebrated author, educator, and activist. He and Carrie, the award-winning singer and songwriter, have produced a number of stage productions centered around collective healing and reimagining of our democracy. They have co-written songs, turned poetry into music, and hose The Growing Edge podcast - which is a beautiful venue for discovery and growth.
This conversation explores the many voices and cultures we’ll need to weave together if we're going to repair and restore the sacred lands we cohabitate, lands that have been desecrated by centuries of violence, theft, extraction, and forced displacement. Through music, poetry, and discussion, we tap into the spirit of possibility that can come if we're willing to show up in our lives and risk ourselves in our status, standing, and safety.
"Send Love, It Matters" by Carrie Newcomer Somewhere someone needs help. Send love. It matters. If you can’t get there yourself, then take a deep breath. Breathe in the weight of their troubles. Breathe out and send all those burdens into the Light where sorrows can be held with the most tender and infinite grace. Breathe in what you can do. Breathe out what you can’t change. Spool out a thread of connection, send courage and calm. For the nights can be long and filled with shadows, and sometimes terrible unexpected waters will rise. Somewhere someone needs help. Send love. It matters.
