i believe
in the powerful gesture of carrying a reusable mug
in the new story
a better story
in riding bicycles
and not owning what we don’t need
local book stores
and paper books
in telling our children the truth, always, even when it’s difficult
unseen acts of integrity
light rail
dark skies
the dance of misty copeland. the calligraphy of tich nhat hanh. the painting of mary cassatt.
eating slowly while sitting down
sitting down
standing up
the innate human capacity to live in tune with nature
magic
spirits
our future.
