“Acceptance looks like a passive state, but in reality it brings something entirely new into this world. That peace, a subtle energy vibration, is consciousness.” ~Eckhart Tolle
“There are causes worth dying for, but none worth killing for.” ~Albert Camus
After searching downtown for someone in need to help them out with their downtown performance, this band found Rodney, who had been sleeping in the park for the last couple of nights. It took a little convincing to get him to play the part of hand percussions, but after they finally got him to agree Rodney said, “I guess it wouldn’t hurt to do it. In fact, I think I need to feel better than I’ve been feeling.” Such a beautiful way to elevate someone’s spirit. Love it!

“There are problems and there is deep suffering in all of our lives, and there is abject suffering for some people in the world, so let’s get busy and work with that, but lets not forget that this is an astonishing gift to be alive on this planet at this time, astonishing, and it is irresponsible not to be grateful.”
~Jeff Salzman
“In these times of devastating ecological and social collapse, there are those of us who feel an urgency to attend to the world ‘before it’s too late.’ But the great paradox is that this very tendency to rush anxiously ahead is what got us into trouble in the first place. In the Aboriginal way of dreaming, the past and future are embedded in the present. One’s embodiment is the ground into which all continuity flows, so the past can be just as influenced as the future by one’s way of going in the here and now. Let the way that you walk be slow. Let us listen to the pleas of our surrounding thirsts. Let us acknowledge the forgetting which drifted us onto this terrifying precipice. Let the grief of it all make its encounter through your remembering. And may beauty come alive then, under your feet.” ~Toko-pa
