I am in that retreat selise mentions and have been for a couple of years. What is so difficult to shut out is knowledge of unconscionable actions of my brethren.
The question I cannot avoid here in my small piece of safe paradise is how can you be any more at ease, followed by what more can I do?
The inner voice just keeps getting louder.)

sometimes a retreat is needed to get clear on what comes next and to prepare for it…

I’m with you! Why, this is the sort of horror, it seems to me, where civil disobedience (even from congress members, imagine that!) should be called for! Lying down across the exits from the chamber!

I know, I know, I’m delusional. But I’m thinking of the magnitude of this — and I’m sure you know just what I mean.

If you believe that innocent people will be tortured and stashed away forever and even murdered as a result of this abomination, and that war criminals will be enabled to commit more war crimes, what is the appropriate “scale” of reaction?
