Paz
Excellent – well said.
” A Paz que você procura como resultado final de suas escolhas não será construída com a força do pensamento. Não, ela será alcançada após você conseguir superar muitos aspectos negativos sobre a vida e fatos. O processo ara se alcançar a Paz é um acontecimento contínuo de autoconhecimento. É necessário que, antes desta, você promova guerras importantes em seu interior, para afastar o negativo, e conseguir criar essa consciência, ou condição humana que reflete esse estado de Paz. Quandoa gente fala em paz, na verdade o que deve ser considerado é a situação toda, não é parte do caminho. É a travessia rumo ao que promove esse diálogo com os nossos fantasmas. Se afastamos as perdas, e se consegue promover o sentimento de satisfação interior, mesmo passando por problemas, e conseguimos nos manter firmes e ao mesmo tempo equilibrados diante de nossos propósitos. Então paz é um grau apurado…

Bias
We can be prejudiced, we tend to view things according to the lens we wear. The lens we wear is coloured by where our sympathies lay. If we profit from the marginalization of others or the destruction of Mother Earth, so be it. Money, aggrandizement and status are the Gods we worship. We have to remember that as we sow, we reap. Every action has consequences.

Iksta ik stil en kijk. Het is het kleine raam in de nok. Het treft me op een manier die ik nog niet ken. Toen ik het ontwierp wist ik dat dit kleine glas in lood raam veel voor me zou betekenen. Het is altijd een heilig plekje geweest in mijn huis. Het symboliseert de Aarde, het groeien en het Al. Maar nu zie ik pas wat dat alles bij elkaar betekent.

De stille tijd is in aantocht, de herfst, de winter. Het is een tijd om bomen te planten. Maar ook een tijd van inkeer en filosofie. Al heel lang weet ik: Hoe stiller ik ben, hoe meer ik ontdek. Maar als ik te lang stil ben of doorwerk aan…

Remember the Typewriter?
I fondly remember my early portable typewriters and getting a “D” in summer school typewriting class. Then in 1985, an Apple Macintosh changed the world for me…

Yep, hail to that piece of writing instrumentation that was the precursor to the computer keyboard. Well, here’s a little lighthearted entertainment for all of my writers out there, featuring a whimsical, magical, musical composition I played with my high school band. This piece, “The Typewriter” concerto is a short composition of light music by American composer Leroy Anderson, which features an actual typewriter as a percussion instrument. Oh, how I wish I still had at least one of my old typewriters today! Enjoy!
How climate change will affect your hometown and what to do about it
Addressing climate change has two parts: mitigation (reducing greenhouse gases) and adaptation (preparing for the expected impacts.) To do the latter, you need to know what impacts you’re likely to experience where you live.

The Federal Government has just released a mapping program that can tell communities what to expect so they can prepare for the impacts already baked into the climate: excessive heat, flooding, fires, etc.
Here’s an example from the Durango, Colorado area for extreme heat.

Emergency managers will benefit from real time data: how many people are affected by excessive heat, coastal flooding and the like.

To make your community more resilient, take a look at the forecasts. Find out what your municipal leaders are doing to prepare.
- Do emergency management plans take into account these projected changes?
- Who is most vulnerable and what’s being done to protect them?
- Are critical…

चयन / Choice

सबको खुश करना
असम्भव है,
पर किसी को दुख न पहुंचे
यह संभव है,
चयन हमारा है…

It’s impossible
to please everyone,
but it’s possible
not to hurt anyone,
choice is ours…

Review: The Souls of Black Folk, By W.E.B. Du Bois — Inspiring Critical Thinking and Community via Books, Lessons, and Story

I listened to a book by a pioneering scholar whom I have admired since elementary school: This book is one that should be on every shelf in America, and I mean that in the widest sense, as in North America and South America. Since it’s in the public domain, it is available freely as an […]
