Dialogues

My hope is that we can use our dialogues as a tool for personal and global transformation. That may sound rather grandiose, perhaps off-puttingly so, but the fact is that we don't do enything without the hope that it will effect some change in us and in the world. Also when I say 'dialogues' I'm not just refering to what happens on forums I create or participate in, I mean the entirity of DIALOGUE - 'Transcendent Dialogue'. Dialogue across the whole of space, time and being.

As much as I can. I try to attend and promote the CEC Network Webinars that take place via Zoom on Wednesdays at 7.00 pm. Here's the latest info:

For more than fifty years, Jonathon Porritt has been campaigning for the

believes that it is 'not too late' to avoid climate breakdown. But the thrust of Love,
Anger & Betrayal is that it soon will be.

Links can be pasted in from YouTube - again not as convenient as some social media but easy enough and it works. Here I'm posting my latest YouTube upload - an 'audiobook' version of one of my Stormhaven stories.

I likely to use this forum mainly on my computer but it looks okay on a smartphone. This post is from my phone. Sure it's not as snazzy as Facebook and the rest but it's free of corporate bull crap. The autocorrect said 'bullying' and I have to mention that because it's true.

Big photos ain't going to upload. I look at this as a feature not a flaw.

You can upload files by clicking the bar at the bottom of the post window. The limits are 2 attachments per post and 2 mb or less per attachment. attachments can be image or text files including pdf's if within the limits. This is not intended to be another forum for memes and ads.

This is not Facebook or Instagram or WhatsApp or any of the commercial, controlling, complex media platforms this is a local platform for dialogue. For sharing ideas not advertisments, focused on meaning not on memes. This is old school - simple and principled.
