Ron Finley plants vegetable gardens in South Central LA — in abandoned lots, traffic medians, along the curbs. Why? For fun, for defiance, for beauty and to offer some alternative to fast food in a community where “the drive-thrus are killing more people than the drive-bys.”
This guy is awesome.
“Let us liberate ourselves from any form of control. Let us focus at the inner drum, where the rhythm aligns with that of our heart. The measure of responsibility, equals to the need for evolution. Just listen to the inner child, let it whisper in your ear.” ~Grigoris Deoudis
Happy Mother’s Day to all the awesome Mom’s out there doing the hardest job there is. And to Mother Earth, the most amazing and beautiful Mother of all ~ much love!!
“Hardship often prepares an ordinary person for an extraordinary destiny.” ~ C.S. Lewis
“People get into a heavy-duty sin and guilt trip, feeling that if things are going wrong, that means that they did something bad and they are being punished. That’s not the idea at all. The idea of karma is that you continually get the teachings that you need to open your heart. To the degree that you didn’t understand in the past how to stop protecting your soft spot, how to stop armoring your heart, you’re given this gift of teachings in the form of your life, to give you everything you need to open further.” ~Pema Chödrön
“We truly must realize that ignorance makes a man unaware of the circumstance and reason for man’s own suffering, which ultimately is greed. We truly must overcome our ability to let ourselves be driven by the desires of our ego, that which ultimately fogs our vision and makes our hearts passive. We truly must feel the power of our own hearts and in first hand experience the peace it can bring to ourselves but uppermost the peace it will bring to others. When we eliminate our ego and give rise to our own pure being, we will be able to eradicate the suffering of man and all living creatures.” ~Zdravko Stefanovic
“You are one thing only. You are a Divine Being. An all-powerful Creator. You are a Deity in jeans and a t-shirt, and within you dwells the infinite wisdom of the ages and the sacred creative force of All that is, will be and ever was.” ~Anthon St. Maarten, Divine Living: The Essential Guide To Your True Destiny
Artists need to create on the same scale that society has the capacity to destroy.
“In the house of lovers, the music never stops, the walls are made of songs & the floor dances.” ~Rumi
