Zjenny - this is a very simple and non-abstract way to express these important and imminent factors. I agree totally.
The words I use are also a way for me to focus and direct my mind, of course. I change my mood by change my vocabulary.
I have one question also, a wondering and a riddle I cannot solve completely:
I am very convinced that we have had too much logic and logistics, too much empiric thinking, "scientific reasoning" etc. I believe what we really need in this new path of humankind is a way to reestablish our connection with the intuitive self - what the Aborgines called Dream Time, the realm of the shamans, those other ways of describing the "reality", the other paradigms.
The problem is that all these other means of understanding and describing the "reality" are very, very hard to dress in word: I mean; how DO you actually describe a most important dream, or an out of body experience, a tickling feeling about your friend becoming ill or whatever an experience from the other side of the mind?
So we use metaphors, images, analogic reasoning - which to many, non-initiated people sound very, very odd and "New-Agey".
Even the extremely well-approved Chinese Medicine tends to sound unserious when one tries to embrace the consecuences of "having wet wind in you heart-spline system". Or how ridicously one may sound for a nuclear scientist when you are trying to convince him about the "energies" that surrounds people and places (-"Well, why cannot you measure them, then?")
Isn't it so sad, that as we are trying so hard to change the way of reasoning, thinkt, experiencing and of communicating - we are stuck with the languages of the old, logic, logistic, stiff? We are forced to use the tools and proofs of the counterpart all the time. Forced to play their game.
I have no simple solution to this, but believe that in this riddle also lies the solution of moving from Polarity to unity - finding a better way of understanding those important things that cannot be described. To communicate the images that are real, but without words.
/Thanks for lifting the issue.

Extreme polarity is what we should leave behind.
The shift is imo. a shift from extreme polarity to unity.
To help focus on unity as opposed to extreme polarity I offer us a reference to what that would mean.
What words do I use that are out of extreme polarity?
What words do I use that are based in unity?
