After hundreds of years we still haven't figured it out.


Don't give up yet, we have things to do.

Dona Anderson

The last couple of years has shown us we need a lot of change.

And, it comes to us in many different ways from  ...
      

      The weather
      to Violence
      Murder 
      War 
      Illness
      Lies
      hardship
      homeless
      accidents
      Fires
      clean water
      empty shelves
      hording
      and more.

I remember in the beginning of the pandemic we heard the words saying we want to go back to normal.

Then we heard voices that said our before life wasn't normal.

Will these last couple of years finally become that wake up call.

I heard this interview in the video below and had to share it.

I believe a lot of us know change is needed but where can it start.

Hopefully we can find things we can do and peacefully use our voice/votes to secure change on the bigger scale.

Change needs to come in many ways even in how we shop and spend money. 

How our purchases affect nature, wildlife, rivers, oceans and more. 

Change doesn't just come from politicians.  We vote them in.

Every little bit helps.





PS. As I was listening to the video I thought of how things we buy like appliances and other things don't last very long anymore. - what happened to quality. 

How much garbage we throw out in packaging, having to get the new model, and all the plastic waste. We see the sale sign and suddenly need something we didn't an hour ago.

Here's a few lines from the meditation Why should We in my book Moving Forward from the Heart on page 69.


"Why should we support the future of the World?

Because each one of us can make a difference. 

We can be more kind, understanding and compassionate to others. 

We can listen more, use better words, be more creative, intuitive and expand our role to being guardians, caretakers and caregivers over that of bystanders and consumers."

We can - You can - I can.

  1. This video and her other ones on You Tube give us a lot to learn and think about. I hope it doesn't take years to change old thoughts, words and ideas as we may not have time.
