About three months ago, I deleted my Twitter/X account due to the behavior of the X owner. I don’t want to support his attitude, not even passive. Instead, I set up an account on BlueSky a couple of weeks ago. Please leave your handle in the comments for those of you who are on BlueSky. I’d love to follow you.
However, this was my first post:
What you don’t want
Try to ignore
Don’t be against it
Find something to be for
Don’t feed unwanted
With your energy
But go for your virtues
Whole-heartedly
Cease to fight
Rather turn on the light
I wrote it according to the current political situation in the US. Whatever we give our attention, we feed. We provide energy and feed the object of our attention. Whether we want or don’t want that object of attention doesn’t make any difference. Therefore, feeding something we don’t even like is less beneficial. As long as we turn to the unwanted, things won’t get better.
I cannot and don’t want to ignore what is going on in the States since I am listening to or watching the news. Furthermore, I have to watch and follow associated regulatory developments due to my employed job. Also, the plans of a particular person possibly affects the EU in several ways. But that is enough for me and I decided to stay away from political and fired-up discussions or rants on social media (which is not easy anyway – I am hardly finding accounts on BlueSky that do not hit you with political posts). Instead, I will do my best to feed the good.
I won’t give a particular person the attention he so desperately seeks.
I know which wolf I don’t want to feed.
In Love and Light

there is darkness but if we look, there is so much light as well.

That’s the point! We are so used looking at a dark corner that we overlook the light all around it. If you put light into a dark room, the room geths lighter. But we can never put darkness into light. So, let’s pour light and eliminate the dark spotson our planet.

It will be as dark as we make it Erika. I can feel an assassination coming on, he’s rocked too many boats in the ‘establishment’. The corruption in that place just doesn’t care anymore.
But yes, lets just build the new from all this change that is coming through 🤗❤️🙏

You confirm my deepest concerns. He is throwing arrows everywhere and thinks he will be adored for it. But what he may overlook is that he harms those he promised to protect…
Let’s be the light and yes see what we can make from the debries of the changes. Thank you, Mark 💖

In all honesty, I am so sick of the political landscape here regardless of the political party. I have seen a ton of political posts on bluesky since I joined and I do not engage. See you on bluesky 🦋

I’m so sad, Erika. I will not “feed” the wolf. Your poem speaks to many of our hearts. It resonates! I’m not on social media (I do use SnapChat so I can “see” my grands and kids-it’s their popular choice to share). Thank you for being you and spreading love and light!
Love and admiration, Karla ❣️🩷💙

I claim it is a good thing to avoid social media in general. I would do it too if I did not use it for promoting my company and its products (like Instagram and Facebook). I often thought of deleting/deactivating my FB account. But there I have gathered most of the people I know personally. We will see how far Zuckerberg goes…
Let’s keep feeding the good wolf – no matter what 💖

I too am on BlueSky and pretty much have surrounded myself and my feed on there with any and everything bookish. I am total agreement about not feeding the egomaniac by allowing any thoughts good or bad. I’m disconnected and placing my trust in the Universe to right everything wrong. And I believe it will. I think I am already following you on BlueSky, but will check. Love the poem!

Yes, we already found each other on BlueSky. I am glad this option allows us to keep up using the old proved and tested Twitter without being on Twitter.
These days make us practice to keep up our good intentions and vibes for sending light until the darkness is over…

Thanks a lot, Beth! I followed you 😊
I heard about the 50 states – 50 protest initiative. I hope the harmful decisions won’t destroy too much. But for four years, the US will be more and more isolated as it appears to me. It is almost impossible to look at this all and not hope you are only in a bad orchestrated deam. If this was a movie we all would say, it is too unrealistic…
