"Energy always dissipates". True that.
It's the same thing with protests, not really a solution because it's people following an energy of excitement over a cause but they don't really have an idea of what they want to accomplish. Also a reason why we see so often violence at protests: as the energy dissipates people become desperate to "make a difference" at the last minute and sometimes that, unfortunately, turns into lashing out at others.
Better to utilize tools like breathing and self-writing to stabilize ourselves and become more effective on an individual basis.
Thanks for sharing, Joe.
