Sad to see that "use of the Democratic process" has been removed.

I’ve watched this video 3x and get something fresh and inspiring out of it each time.

I'm not sure that I can covenant to, or affirm, or promote or support the "value", (formerly "Evolution"), of "Transformation", clarified and explained as: "We adapt to change" . Is our response to climate change to "adapt to change"? Probably not. Also, just because the "value" words are on petals, they still constitute a list.

I am blown away. So much better than I expected. What a work of art, and labor of love. Thank you. (And I am privately pleased that "freedom" isn't named as a value - people don't realize how complex that concept is. Freedom OF something (freedom of religion, obviously), maybe, and you can talk about freedom TO perhaps, but that's really the RIGHT to. Freedom is very ambiguous and philosophically suspect. Somewhere in the Al Anon "One Day at a Time " book is the quote "the only true freedom is to want to do what you have to do".)
