 We live in one world
+ each act of ours affects the whole. ~Corita Kent  When we take a digital detox,
we're gifting our mind the opportunity to make its own discoveries. ~Anna Carlile  We don't belong
to an institution, to a party, to our state... but to each other. We must practice + study + sing + dream + celebrate belonging to each other as though our lives depend on it. ~Ross Gay
Really effective activism isn't just fear translated into action, but it's also love translated into action. ~Bill McKibben Cultivating some love to act for is a gentle, beautiful, simple way to inspire motivation in ourselves + others. Invite a loved one or new acquaintance on a walk outside. Point the clouds out to a teenager. Roll down the windows in the car + let the breeze tussle the child's hair in the carseat. Get out beyond the influence of the city lights to take in the beauty of the night sky with someone. Walk in the woods + listen to the trees. Pull a carrot from the soil. Get to know the birds that visit a certain spot. Cultivate love for this planet home of ours. Cultivate love for the humans + plants + creature neighbors that live here too. Let love be the guide.
Love, Jane  I am out with the lanterns looking for myself.
~Emily Dickinson I am both the detective + the mystery. ~Glennon Doyle  The easiest way to save resources + energy is to use less.
This means consuming less, buying less, being green, making do with what we have already - establishing an imperative to rid ourselves of all the unnecessary gadgets + duplications that so hideously clutter up our lives. ~Victor Papanek  The beauty of belief
is it doesn't matter whether the thing you believe is true or not. It's your belief in it that gives it its power. You have to believe that something that doesn't exist can exist to bring it into the world. If you start with the idea that it's impossible, then it's impossible. We believe our way into things, allowing them to come into being in the world. ~Rick Rubin, via this phenomenal listen  I beg you, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart
+ to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer. ~Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet |
