🔮 What is a marble?

In my world, a marble is a metaphorical container for a note that I want to share and shape with you. It can be a sketchy idea, an insight, a piece of knowledge, or a question that I consider valuable for my life's ongoing dialogue.

These marbles are never perfect and always a snapshot of a given moment. So, please, feel free to add your perspective at the ⬇️ bottom of the page. I try to follow the 🔮 principles for media movement building.

Read more about my intentions in 🔮 this marble.

In the past, I didn't have a way to share ideas or insights with others. This marbles website is the manifestation of my desire to share intentionally with the world. If you want to do it too, let me know. I can help you.

The relationship between working with oneself and working together

we can only work with others if we work know how to work with ourselves • the swirls can only interact when they exist on both ends • every swirl tornado swirls around a still center, just like real tornados

we need to learn how to “work with ourselves” which is the action that arises out of the compression. i keep coming back to learning how “work with ourselves” - it seems essential in contributing to change but we mostly get taught knowledge but does not set us up to learn how to take notes, process emotions, explore ideas, deal with frustration in our work & life

This illustration also lives on page D-4 of my paper on How can we transform ourselves? - Spirituality and ecological justice.

#improvement #illustration : draw such that swirls create new tornados that have a still center

–> the smaller and larger forms of working with ourselves relate to adaptive concentric circle ideas mentioned in the IPCC report AR6 🔮 ADAPT-CYCLES-A ## #divergence #compression #creativity
