@rgay Asking muslims to condemn the attack is presupposing they don't already. It's stupid and racist. It's playing the extremist's game.

Pain being misconstrued as pleasure. How often do we think the things that are hurting us are helping? Ugh. Reach out if you want some coaching.
in imageIMPURE MISCONSTRUED AS PURE
Sensory pleasures and superficial qualities are often confused with true purity. This misunderstanding drives us away from seeking meaningful fulfillment. Prioritizing ephemeral appearances over spiritual growth leads to superficial satisfaction lacking the depth necessary for genuine joy.
PAIN CONFUSED WITH PLEASURE
Many pursue temporary comforts, like junk food, mistaking them for genuine pleasure. While these habits offer short-lived enjoyment, they frequently culminate in long-term suffering, underlining the importance of deeper, sustainable sources over fleeting indulgences.

Do you find that you are encouraged to bring people into your organization? It’s a great thing to do, who doesn’t wanna share something great? When you apply your critical thinking skills, if it looks like you’re more important for clout or cash, somethings up.
In DC, we have a few different teachers, each with differences in approach, each with people who vibe with that approach. It’s nice that people have choice here, and in a healthy community you’ll see as much ease with referring out as you will see recruiting in. Easy come, easy go. Why? These are people, not revenue streams or clout bolsters.
