WOW. Lots to talk about again this week! The official show topic is Equality in Motion. For LGBT people, what we want as a community and who we want to be as individuals is sometimes a tricky balance.

As a longtime activist in the LGBT community this subject is one that I spend a lot of time thinking about. As I have begun to embrace modern spirituality and seek to become the person I know the universe intended me to be,  I have found more questions about how to integrate those principles into social justice issues than I ever imagined possible.

How do we bring the forward-thinking principles of love and acceptance to the push for equal rights under the law?

Some say that fighting angry fire with angry fire is the only way forward. For others, pursuing a spiritual path and standing up for your rights as a citizen are not mutually exclusive. The key is in finding a balance that fits your soul’s journey. Activism that is fueled by anger and fear is destructive and creates a cycle that requires more anger and fear to keep it moving. At the same time, the idea that we should not be involved in seeking change because we have chosen what we believe to be a spiritual path can cause us to miss the point of why we are here.

This subject is one that we are only beginning to address as a community.  Your voice is important and I invite you to call me and let’s talk about how to do it.  How do you incorporate your personal soul journey into the dialogue about equality? Share it!
