Right now, we are in a global and personal crisis, and we are being asked to hold many big emotions and sensations in the one container of our being. Joy with sorrow. Trust with fear. Boredom with anxiety. Patience with uncertainty. And it is coming up as a general feeling of stress. A pressing on our system. And as a system, we are really one organism, all of us, connected. And we cannot really compartmentalize; because that "stress" reaches beyond the bounds of our individual selves. Together, the nature of our experience is vast and diverse, fragile and fleeting.
