I feel resigned

Today is one of those days that are rare to me.  I feel resigned.

I have been working desperately and passionately to build The Chicago Convergence for over a year and I am the one guy that keeps saying to the masses in some form or another:

"If you keep trying to cover your own ass, all you will get is more of what you already got"

With the economy as it is, survival (cover your own ass) has kicked into high gear and people are more afraid than ever.  To attempt causation of a 'we era' in the midst of the 'fuck off era' is a bit daunting at times.

But, as I chose my lot, I will continue to pull myself up, dust myself off and get back to work.

There is untold abundance in community and 'WE' can do anything.

John,

Great and an interesting post. Many of us have chosen not to participate in this economy. I have begun to experience more partnering with the "good" people. People who are work in different disciplines and look for opportunities to enhance their offerings by inclusion of people with different or complementary disciplines.

BTW, how are my old stomping grounds? LA dude!
