It seems like everyone is scrambling for certainty these
days. We prop up political saviors, double down on our opinions,
seek self-affirming narratives, yearn for the good ole days when
things were more familiar and predictable. This urge for solid
ground forces us into binaries and boxes of us vs them, right vs
wrong, left vs right, rather than holding space for all that is
possible beyond what we have inherited.

But there is no such thing as purity in a world polluted by
separation, scarcity and supremacy. Rather, if we want a world of
less suffering and greater wellbeing, we are going to have to
reckon with our mutual belonging and responsibility to it.

That’s not to say there is not a role for personal responsibility
and the inquiry of “how can I as an individual, do the right
thing, reduce harm and support the realignment of resources
towards equity?” There is, but it’s not the whole of it. We need
to locate our personal responsibility inside of mutuality.

Understanding our social location – our social group memberships
that determine our proximity to power, privilege and even
wellness — is how we skillfully engage in a wellness that takes
care of all of us, not just some of us. And seeing ourselves as
part of the problem and part of the solution moves us toward one
another. Mutual responsibility reminds us that there can be no
wellbeing of me unless there is a wellbeing of we.
Interdependence affirms that there is no separation — that we are
all impacted by one another. Mutuality is a generative world view
that grows and expands with equity. Not only is there enough to
go around for everyone to be well, but more wellbeing creates
more wellbeing.

Holding the space for multiple truths, chronic change, messy
transitions and future possibility is not just the work of our
times, it's more. And that is exactly what we are going to be
exploring at the upcoming in-person retreat in upstate New York.
