“In the drastically changing world we find ourselves in right now, we are often inspired to dig deep in discovering more about our true selves. We see the social uprising and ever growing awareness sweeping its way across the planet -this is undeniable -but what we are also seeing is a movement of looking inward that is sending people on a conscious journey far beyond what our minds could have ever thought was possible. Breaking away the layers of programming and beliefs of who we think we are and why we do what we do, we begin to discover what could be called inherent truths that lie within us. It seems almost by natural progression that many are beginning to discover a deeper understanding of who we are and what life is all about. This is coming by questioning life, observing our individual experiences and becoming aware of how our thoughts and actions are painting our futures as we move forward.” ~Collective Evolution

“When you plant seeds in the garden, you don’t dig them up every day to see if they have sprouted yet. You simply water them and clear away the weeds; you know that the seeds will grow in time. Similarly, just do your daily practice and cultivate a kind heart. Abandon impatience and instead be content creating the causes for goodness; the results will come when they’re ready.” ~Bhikshuni Thubten Chodron

“If this is the price to be paid for an idea, then let us pay. There is no need of being troubled about it, afraid, or ashamed. This is the time to boldly say, “Yes, I believe in the displacement of this system of injustice by a just one; I believe in the end of starvation, exposure, and the crimes caused by them; I believe in the human soul regnant over all laws which man has made or will make; I believe there is no peace now, and there will never be peace, so long as one rules over another; I believe in the total disintegration and dissolution of the principle and practice of authority; I am an Anarchist, and if for this you condemn me, I stand ready to receive your condemnation.” ~Voltairine de Cleyre, Exquisite Rebel: The Essays of Voltairine de Cleyre-Anarchist, Feminist, Genius

“Plants will, if genuinely asked, respond to you. They will teach you their medicine, as plants have always taught human beings. And though human beings may lose the knowledge of the medicinal uses of a plant, the plant always remembers what its medicine is. And they will tell you…if you ask. If you approach them with an open heart, open your senses and truly allow yourself to perceive them, they will always respond. If you fail the first time, go again. For you may go to the sea as often as you wish.” ~Stephen Harrod Buhner

“Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile. Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
