Hope springs eternal

"The very least you can do in your life is to figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it, under its roof." -- Barbara Kingsolver
As an educator, I have learned that no matter how much information you give people, if they feel overwhelmed and hopeless about their ability to act, the information only serves to depress and paralyze. We receive so much doom, gloom and hopeless messages about the world we live in--environmentally, politically, socially, culturally--the list goes on. Too many people have reached the "well, I can't do anything anyway" point, so why bother. That's the biggest threat to the health of our planet and our collective psyche.
Amen to Karen...baby steps, open hearts and minds, planting flowers, feeding the land and reaching out to our children--letting them know that there is lots of beauty and hope on this planet. That's where the magic happens.On Drop that apocalyptic vision and start imagining a positive future posted 3 years, 4 months ago 56 Responses
