Get hyper local
I am so agreeing with you!! I'm grateful that we know the lady who grows many of our vegetables in the next street. But I have chosen to deselect to this 'other' life here in Thailand.
Shared goals, shared beliefs, co-operation and collaboration. We are moving there and, in some places like rural Thailand, we are not needing to undo much to get back to a purer place.
Thank you for keeping this dialogue happening about who governs, and how, and how-why it should be different.
