Why would anyone support Trump? Because he acted all-knowing. We didn’t have to think. We could rely on HIM. It’s not just Trump. It’s whoever or whatever we have made god. And our god might have been “God” or a parent, friend, romantic partner, author, religious leader, political party, spiritual or cultural community, or an inanimate object or value, such as money, power or success. Whatever we have made “god” has to remain bigger than life, and in order to keep our “god” big, we have had to make ourselves and/or others small. If we are ever to be well, we must topple our gods, empower ourselves and others and become co-creators in a world of mutual support. Who have you made God? Let’s talk.

A revolution occurs when people take back the power to organize their lives and their society, when they demand that society and the economy exist to meet the needs of people and the earth. The victories of the Democratic Party November 4 signal that people are ready to take back power from Donald Trump. But more than that, people all over the nation are co-creating the world they want by joining together in mutual support, fighting against ICE, providing food for the victims of the suspension of SNAP benefits and so much more.

I realized something yesterday. Because of chronic illness and weakness, I don’t trust my body. And because, despite ongoing pain and fatigue, I tended to keep going, my body doesn’t trust me either. And the same can apply to my mind and heart. Do I trust my judgment? Does my judgment trust me? Can you relate? In what way? While our nation descends into cruelty and chaos, do we feel secure in and about ourselves? If not, how do we rebuild trust?
