I will NEVER FORGET the Palestinian delegation showing up to Standing Rock. NEVER. THEY SHOWED THE FUCK UP EVEN FROM A WORLD AWAY.
i want to learn to validate the anxious feelings that keep me procrastinating rather than trying to squash them away
& i want to learn to use self-compassion to (lovingly) undermine my urge to invest self-worth in outcome. because that seems like a major subconscious reason behind my procrastination: the task becomes overwhelming because i’m letting it define me. this blog post says procrastination is actually a signal that we need more self-care and self-compassion. it’s not always showing a lack of time management (though that can play a part) – if i saw my tasks as not determining my worth or ability but just as something to do, something i could potentially enjoy intrinsically, i wouldn’t feel this level of anxiety
healthy self-appreciation is interconnected with others. just as we can offer ourselves self-compassion for our inadequacies and mistakes by remembering that it makes us human, and is thus a point of connection, we can learn to shine knowing that it’s connected with others.
“If you take the notion of interbeing seriously, then celebrating your achievements is no more self-centred than having compassion for your failings. We can’t really claim personal responsibility for our gifts and talents. They were born from our ancestral gene pool, the love and nurturing of our parents, the generosity of friends, the guidance of teachers, and the wisdom of our collective culture. A unique nexus of causes and conditions went into creating the ever-evolving person we are. Appreciation for our good qualities, then, is really an expression of gratitude for all that has shaped us as individuals and as a species. Self-appreciation humbly honours all of creation.” (Self-Compassion, Kristin Neff)
The fact that there are less protests is absolutely heartbreaking.
But I guess that’s what happens when every social media app tries to suppress information. People eventually start to lose interest.
Don’t stop talking about what is currently happening in Palestine!
what can we do to help amazon? everyone is saying that no-one gives a fuck about it, but no one is giving information how to help the situation :(
The “no-on gives a fuck” is about worldwide media not talking about this. But it’s really nice of you to want to help us.
You can donate here if you want to help stop the exploitation and deforestation of Amazon. The president, who calls himself “Captain Eletric Saw,” allows the exploitation and destruction of the Amazon for economic ends.
You can also donate to SOS AMAZONIA here. They are the biggest NGO in Brazil and they work with implantation of public policies that aims into preservation of the Amazon and it’s people.
They are both helping the Amazon right now!
Always good to remember: USD$1,00 = RS$4,04 and €1,00 = RS$4,48. So, even if you can help just a tiny bit, it will help us a lot!
34,000 deaths is clearly an appalling undercount when watchdog groups learn about mass graves like this every week.
