A Juicy Quote

 I found this wonderful quote from Albert Einstein.  It's worth reading and re-reading for its wisdom in our divided times. 

A human being is part of the whole, called by us "Universe," a part limited in time and space.  He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separate from the rest -- a kind of optical delusion of consciousness.  This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us.  Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.

The Cost of Freedom

     I came across this vlog the other day and thought I would share it with you.  It is a heartfelt plea to take up the power that we all have in promoting freedom.   You can see it here.

Something to Ponder

     I have been AWOL because I've been struggling with what to do about the new leadership in my country.  I range between disbelief, shame, and various levels of fear.  I ran across a video today that speaks to this, and what we -- yes, that's WE -- can do about it.  You can view it here.   

     Meanwhile, please remember this:  We are stronger together than we realize.  We just need to come together and become the leaders that we are, working toward a future that we want to live in.  Please join us.
