December is...
a time to reflect on the liberation of all people
The end of 2019 is a perfect opportunity to reflect on the past year and look toward the future - not only as a movement and as members of our respective organizations, but also as individuals.
Part of our values here at Violence Free Colorado include the pursuit of social justice, knowing that equity is essential to ending relationship abuse, and challenging power-based perceptions, assumptions and behaviors to advance equality for all.
As we move into 2020,our staff is working to ensure those values are fulfilled in who we are and what we do in our work at Violence Free Colorado. What can we do in our daily lives to inspire this type of radical change?
We hope that you'll take some time during the month of December to consider this as well. These questions can help you find focus around your own purpose. Does anything on the list resonate with you?
Here are a few of our favorites:
- What’s something you want to do that’s impossible? What would need to change to make it possible?
- What are you willing to struggle for?
- How do you want to make others feel?
- What sparks your creativity, makes the wheels in your head start turning?
It isn't always easy to consider a new world vision, especially when we're living in such challenging times. But we work toward this vision because we know that the world we want to live in - one that includes equity for all, safety for all, and liberation for all - is too important to ignore.
