163 years ago today, in 1860, Abraham Lincoln was nominated for president.
The arc of history is longer than human vision. It bends. We abolished slavery, we granted universal suffrage. We have done hard things before. And every time it took a terrible fight between people who could not imagine changing the rules, and those who said, "We already did. We have made the world new." The hardest part will be to convince yourself of the possibilities, and hang on. —Barbara Kingsolver

The Way of the Watercourse is also that of Great Love...the possibility of something that sees us exactly as we are, with all our deep flaws and ugliness, and that accepts us just the same...emptiness, the endless kindness of Gaia, or the Benevolent Great Unknown will work just fine...it doesn’t really matter what you call it. The important thing is to bring people into a relationship with source. – Satya Robyn
The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe about us, the less taste we shall have for destruction. – Rachel Carson
I cannot dance upon my toes
I cannot dance upon my Toes—
No Man instructed me—
But oftentimes, among my mind,
A Glee possesseth me …
And though I had no Gown of Gauze—
No Ringlet, to my Hair,
Nor hopped to Audiences—like Birds,
One Claw upon the Air …
Nor any know I know the Art
I mention—easy—Here—
Nor any Placard boast me—
It’s full as Opera—
