(...) what now? so where do we go from here? what<u+2019>s next? well, the first step is to process the emotions and the fear that<u+2019>s getting in the way of us seeing the truth. if we keep getting caught up in them, we<u+2019>re only going to create even more problems <u+2014> which is our choice. but ask yourself if you feel it<u+2019>s necessary to do this given that a quick shift in awareness can help us see more clearly and help us begin a different set of discussions. the next step would be having the conversation about the elephant in the room: it<u+2019>s troubling that after all these years, we still show up at the polling stations to vote for a system that doesn<u+2019>t have the people<u+2019>s interests in mind and that is only making things worse as each year goes by. with a shift in consciousness and awareness, we can start creating something new . by joe martino (excerpt)
