Call from CHE MIddle East for the Fifth Estate:)

thanks, Albert! will do my small thing and pass this along :)

“We still need help in getting our work noticed by the political bloggers. Please feel free to forward/post to any list that you're a part of and become a part of the change that's taking place.”

couple of suggestions on how to get noticed by political bloggers:

1) set up a blog for Human Emergence and SDi

2) write political op-ed articles on popular newspapers such as Wall Street Journal, NYTimes, etc. Don Beck would be perfect for this :)

my two cents.

understood. but if there's a will, there's a way. for example, people who are doing the groundwork could share their thoughts and experience as they shape the future of Palestine (same as those popular Iraq soldiers who blog :)) it doesn't have to be every day, just enough for other bloggers to have something to link to.

that said, i'm not sure how conducive blogging is in Palestine. that's the problem with spoiled bloggers like me. i sometimes get deluded that blogging is the answer to every problem :)

vive the 5th estate

~C4Chaos  the CHE blog could be collaborative, if not you, who? Go create…

itcould be publicised  at the SDi list, integral salons….  for content; carpe diem!
size the day

“I wish Helens recent comment at London integral Circle would be visible here too…Its painfully true. Helen, Mushin , George et al from Europe are doing Hercules work already.Its time to debunk all grandiose claims and document who is active at the leading work and what kind of sacrifice is in demand.”

exactly. and i agree with Helen too. for now, one of the best ways to “document” the real action that's happening on the ground is via blogs. why? because they are more search-engine friendly and has more potential for going viral.

Joty said: “the CHE blog could be collaborative, if not you, who? Go create…”

that's true. but it's more authentic if coming from people who are doing the action.

that's why Iraq war blogs from the ground are so popular. people want to hear action directly from the “battlefield” instead of just arm chairs ;)

yes you are right ~C  but they may need help, a bridge to make the leap, being well versed in the 5th estate you could perform a maieutic function for them, help them to birth it; push baby push…

therfore..as I saw it so often in my working habitats…building of core groups and task force teams..dedicated to the comprehensive purpose of communication (as Albert described) would be essential. Every action crew needs a masterplan and some shared guidelines. So who is playing what instrument in the whole orchster? 

personaly I am more the consensus type.but I know we need Maverick Approaches and personal intitiatives too. Chaordic Elements? As mother of 4 children and 6 grand children I know lots of basics:):) but to align hundreds and thousands of players..isnt that the real challenge?.Without infights?

Otro mundo es possible


thank you albert, Anitta, ~C

Inspiring stuff but yes a challenge!

In my role as a tide-reader and node spotter I perceive larger patterns,  Information, feelings coming through from various quarters makes me feel that there is push going on, a surge in consciousness, something IS being born, from the implicate to the explicate reality; we need to practice the art of midwifery.


A lotus to y'all, a  collective Buddha to be!

As Joanna Macy said:
<I realize again how lucky I am to be living in this dark time, so that I can navigate it boldly
for the sake of ocean and wild goose and all the future beings.>

P.S. in a related topic, here's a case for why a CEO should blog.

Why Howard Schultz Should Blog

“Howard has always talked about growing his company to get bigger by acting smaller.  And a blog, or some other social media avenue, is the perfect tool to help big companies get smaller in customer’s eyes.  Other CEO blogs like Jonathan Schwartz’s blog and Bob Lutz’s blog have helped to make Sun Microsystems and General Motors, both goliath companies, get smaller in the eyes of customers.  And thanks to encouraging its employees to blog, companies like Microsoft look less pervasive and less evil in the eyes of customers. ”

and if CEOs could find time to blog, then what more of people at the “leading edge of consciousness”?

i rest my case :)
