Modern Life is Rubbish

“To be hopeful in bad times is not just foolishly romantic. It is based on the fact that human history is a history not only of cruelty, but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage and kindness… The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory.” ~ Howard Zinn.

Be Kind

A very short but pertinent quote for the times we are facing now.

For all those who are still not sure which side of the stand they are taking, may you have the courage to find out soonest...

As for myself, and those standing on the side of Life, may we have the courage to face the battles ahead...

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths.  These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassions, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”

~ Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.” ~ Plato
