Throughout the history of our existence as humans, we have learned about and even celebrated how we have evolved in terms of: technology, how institutions of learning are structured, how houses are built, how the media delivers a host of messages, how food is prepared, and let us not forget how we are entertained.

As significant as these developments are, they will never carry the level of value that they have the potential to bear if we are not breathing unadulterated life into them every day. It is a treat when we are greeted with an opportunity to stand still and marvel at the positive and life-altering step a person has taken to contribute to the reconstruction of what has become our accepted landscape.

It has become so accepted, that we often step over a given terrain that we have the power to affect purposefully because we are convinced our contribution will not make a difference. Or because we are afraid. Fear of not being accepted, as well as worrying about being ostracized are a huge and common part of the human condition. As a result, we adopt other survival techniques while the cracks in the landscape become larger.

In The Bridge Paradigm: A Spiritual Path to Un-Fooling Ourselves and Social Responsibility, author Valerie Christopher places emphasis on the need to stop pretending that we do not see what is in clear view, and honor who we are meant to be on our deepest, most whole level. While this is only part of the solution, it is an important step towards filling the cracks and crevices with growth oriented intentions— for ourselves, and for those who are willing to carry the baton.   

Drawing from personal experiences, as well as our cultural and societal influences and confluences, Valerie Christopher points out why it has become critical for us to heighten our awareness, and enhance our accountability through the psychological and developmental minefields we all must negotiate and conquer. If we do not, we will continue to be vulnerable to a constellation of mental poisons because of our choice “to not understand”—culturally, racially, economically and systemically.

The time to reconstruct our cultural perspective, and achieve sustained transformation we can see, experience, and continue to hold in high esteem is now. The Bridge Paradigm will resonate with anyone who wishes to play a part in healing what hurts us as a society.
