Message definition (Celebration and Mourning Circle )
'''We live in a world where we have been dehumanized by the systems that we live in. One of the primary ways we have been dehumanized is how we have been educated to suppress the feelings we label as “negative” '''(i.e. sadness, fear, anger, despair, shame). We have been taught to view these feelings as a burden to ourselves and others, rather than as a normal and valid part of being a human being. We have also been taught to understand these feelings as problems that need to be fixed, and thus have been made vulnerable to exploitation by corporations and media who promise happiness and a return to normalcy through purchase and use of their products.
