Counting on … day 262

31st July 2022

Talking about the climate crisis doesn’t have to be always upbeat and optimistic. There are times when that is not how we feel. Times when we feel anxious, overwhelmed and out of our depth. There may be times when we feel that no one else understands how we feel, that we are alone carrying these worries. Don’t bottle these feelings up but share them with someone you trust, someone who you know will be sympathetic. You might find a locally run climate cafés – https://climatecafes.org/ – or may be form an informal local group. You might talk with your spiritual director (where I live we have https://spidir.org.uk/). You might want to write down your thoughts. You might try or find out more about, the Deep Waters course run by Green Christian – https://greenchristian.org.uk/deep-waters-a-project-of-borrowed-time/
