“Almost no one who’s doing really great, exciting, dynamic things is doing it for the money. We can have a vibrant, productive, wealthy world without having to induce people, through money, to do what they don’t want to do.” ~Charles Eisenstein
“The time is now for transformation. It is a new era and we are poised with the opportunity to bring in a new consciousness, and co-create a new reality. Why? Because the light within each of us has been turned on, and it’s our job to turn that light on brighter and brighter until all false thought forms dissolve in the light of our Truth.” ~ Dr. Michelle L. Casto
“We will not build a peaceful world by following a negative path. It is not enough to say we must not wage war. It is necessary to love peace and sacrifice for it. We must concentrate not merely on the negative expulsion of war but on the positive affirmation of peace. We must see that peace represents a sweeter music, a cosmic melody, that is far superior to the discords of war.” ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
“Imagine a new story for your life and start living it.” ~ Paulo Coelho
“Women, you carry so much for us. You carry our burdens, you carry our pains, you carry our fears. You carry us for 9 months and never stop. You also carry our hopes. You carry our dreams, and you carry the sacred fire. You carry the light of our future. And the truth…the truth is you have been punished. Held down, and treated like second hand citizens. Any respect you have, any rights, you have had to work for, fight for and assert daily. You don’t get paid as much, you don’t get promoted as often and your intuition has been mocked, and even punished. You have suffered for centuries under the thumb of men who fear your power. Because your power, your truth, your fire, when unleashed, will lead us into an entirely new world. If it were your voices being heard these past decades our planet would be in a very different condition. We would have clean air for our young people as they run and play. We would have clean water for them to drink. And we would have clean soil to feed our children well. The time has come: we need your voices, we need your strength, more now than ever. You carry so much for us, now it’s time to lift yourselves. Raise yourselves, and speak. You are the true strength in the world: the strength of life. And that’s what others fear. They fear that you will end the insanity we’re locked in because they can’t see a different kind of reality. All they see is: I gotta get mine before there’s none left. Of course, they are talking about the total depletion of the earth, after which we will have nothing. It’s a path that leads to the destruction of the world as we know it. We need you – mothers, sisters, daughters – more than ever. We need you. Our children need you. The world needs you. You are beautiful, you are intelligent, and you are wise. Men are not your enemies, they are your sons. And we need your love, your guidance, your intuition. You can reshape this world. You can make it a paradise. You. And you can do it without stepping on anyone else. You can do it in partnership, the way it is meant to be. Step into your power. And never, ever let anyone take it from you again.” ~ Aaron Paquette

“Child. Listen to me. Open up your heart for a moment and listen. You don’t need to banish your anger or bury your grief and sadness. The fact that you may feel anger about some injustice or inequity; the fact that you have the capacity to feel grief and sadness means that life still touches you. Learn to trust the wisdom-river flowing beneath the river of these emotions. Learn to walk with your depression, your anxiety, your anger as a teacher and a friend. The fact that you feel means that you care. The thing you *really* have to watch out for is indifference. The ones who don’t feel anything are the ones who are destroying the world.” ~ doña Río de Gracian

“People only get really interesting when they start to rattle the bars of their cages.” ~ Alain de Botton
“Anything else you’re interested in is not going to happen if you can’t breathe the air and drink the water. Don’t sit this one out. Do something.” ~Carl Sagan
