I feel so angry and outraged and infuriated about the network of people in power, using and abusing girls, trafficking human beings. The corruption to cover it all up - beyond comprehension. The extent of the sickening network - beyond comprehension. Why most of them are still walking free - beyond comprehension. Why their names are still suppressed and covered up - beyond comprehension. All the other sick plans they were hatching to get rid of poor people, clone humans and god knows what - beyond comprehension. I don’t care how many systems are going to fall apart when all those names are released and prosecuted and put away for life. I want to see all their wealth and privilege being stripped away and redistributed to people in need.

While I felt outraged, infuriated, numb, hopeless and helpless I pondered how most humans can’t handle being in powerful positions. Across the board. Men & Woman, even children and teens can be cruel if they are the cool kid in class. We are now witnessing the filth at the top of the food chain, but it’s right across all levels of society. Abuse and misuse of people in power. I have seen it in workplaces, in charities, in homes, in schools. Yes and in the yoga & spiritual world too. Don’t even get me started on gurus! So many of them used and abused their students - its sickening!
So what do we do, especially since most of us are exhausted from just dealing with existential stuff, like feeding and housing our families. Profit over people - wherever you look. Profit over natural resources - wherever you look. The ever growing economy at the cost of our planet and health and sanity. The culture of more, better, faster, automate - glorified. Busyness - glorified. Worthiness measured on success and income - glorified.

While a large proportion of the population is distracted and sedated scrolling screens, watching TV, playing games or looking for the next best thing that’s going to fix them, falling into bed exhausted or mentally ill because they can’t handle it - the people in power rub their hands and count their billions of dollars. It’s literally exhausting just to think about how dysfunctional the world is.

How do we even start taking our power back when we have to exist in the very social constructs that make us sick and destroy the planet? How do we even trust anyone to give power to when so many abuse and misuse it to create benefit for themselves and their powerful friends? I have lost my trust in any government, media, corporations many years ago. They don’t care about us, they care about the number that shows in their bank account.

How do we find leaders who lead with heart, with compassion, with honesty & integrity that are not led astray by the taste of power? How can we turn the collective global mess around?

The end.

To stitch or not to stitch. That is the question.

So hard to know if an artwork is finished or not.

This one is called "the odd one". Representing how I felt much of my life, but now realising that I still fit in the big picture somewhat.

Do you think stitching with gold thread would enhance it or make it too much?
