“Debates arise where Truth is hid from sight. Fruitless debates can go on forever as to what might be found behind the closed door. But one has only to open the door and it will be clear to all, and there will be nothing to debate, since everyone will be able to see the Truth for himself… But who will open the door??? It is already open. All that remains is for the eyes of the soul to be opened to see and gain awareness.” ~Anastasia

“I am no longer accepting the things I cannot change. I am changing the things I cannot accept.” ~Angela Y. Davis

I am no longer accepting the things I cannot change. I am changing the things I cannot accept.

Idle No More is a movement founded by four women, Sylvia McAdam, Jess Gordon, Nina Wilson and Sheelah Mclean who decided they could no longer stay silent in the face of what they saw as a legislative attack on First Nation people and the lands and waters across Canada.

They built a movement of thousands – indigenous and non-indigenous people – in Canada and supporters around the world standing up to fight tar sands, deforestation, mining and other industrial development on First Nation lands.

Happy International Women’s Day!

“WE ALREADY HAVE everything we need. There is no need for self-improvement. All these trips that we lay on ourselves—the heavy-duty fearing that we’re bad and hoping that we’re good, the identities that we so dearly cling to, the rage, the jealousy and the addictions of all kinds—never touch our basic wealth. They are like clouds that temporarily block the sun. But all the time our warmth and brilliance are right here. This is who we really are. We are one blink of an eye away from being fully awake.” ~Pema Chödrön, Start Where You Are: A Guide to Compassionate Living
