“America, you whitewash history, literally, and leave out much of its meaning and discovery. And, as we try to get better at uncovering these truths, so many who want to pretend otherwise fight and legislate to push them back underground, to once again bury them.

There are so many discoveries that have been found and made, and then buried and left for us to re-find (or not)--discoveries about autonomy and equality and peace and compromise and respect for all the creatures who inhabit the planet and the planet itself. Our written history has destroyed the voices of the people from whom we stole this land and the voices of those whose lives we stole to build it, the voices of women and children and people whose skin color or language or belief system did not fit the status quo of the time and place where they lived. All were destroyed because it did not serve some lust for power or control or just because the people in charge of such things really did not believe they were very important, or refused to believe that they should be.”

work, rest from work,
appreciation of the work done (yours and others),
and the recognition of how your work
has shaped you.

When you build a house, you have both a house and a builder.
When you plant a garden, you have plants
and a gardener, too.
When you teach, if you remain open to the discovery itself,
you have a lifetime of learning.
Engage with the world and it will hone you,
more connected, more able to love all the world,
including all the hard parts.”
― Shellen Lubin
