Listening to a lovely woman who speaks truth. She was using the word rationalize to express this: "Barter away your integrity." This hit home and when something hits me in the chest it is imperative in me to take a deeper look. As I have said to self and other it is necessary to recapitulate back to self and your own integrity. It's deep.
She is also speaking the word that recently came to me and it is this: Reckoning ... yes, we are in the process of a reckoning, has to come and will.
