I don't think our political system is changeable very much from the inside-out at this point. I stay in DU because of my cyber-friends here and in case I'm mistaken. But when the Archdruid started writing that we need to be pointing the way to new political systems, along with new ways of being here, it resonated totally. I take it to mean organizing locally and informally, with like-minded neighbors. That is one reason I want to sell my home...there are people to my north who are already homesteading and looking to horses for local transportation, because neither they nor the earth can afford cars any more.

I'm am so sorry for your back pain. I trust you have tried sacro-cranial, accupuncture, chiropractic, etc? Is it arthritis in the area of the fracture, or did it just not heal "right?"

I don't know if any of these resonate with you, but Louise Hay separates the back into 3 areas: upper is "lack of emotional support, feeling unloved" and her affirmation is "I love & approve of myself. Life supports and loves me;" middle is "guilt, get off my back" and her affirmation is "I release the past. I'm free to move forward with love in my heart;" lower is "fear of money, lack of financial support" and her affirmation is "I trust the process of life. All I need is always taken care of. I am safe." Arthritis is "feeling unloved. Criticism, resentment" and the affirmation is "I am love. I now choose to love and approve of myself. I see others with love."

I keep managing to bruise my ribs: twice self-inflicted by accident on the left side backing Dahli when I was laying across the saddle, twice I've been kicked in the ribs resulting either in fracture or severe bruise on the right side, and when Algiers flipped on me I fractured the area where the collar bone joins the sternum. Hay doesn't say anything about ribs, though.
