Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? — Mary Oliver

~~~~ Inspiration of the Day: “To stand up and speak out against cold injustice, against the blind wrong-doing that we see in the world — that is one kind of activism. But there is another kind. A rarer form of fire-in-the-belly commitment to a much less talked about cause. Tell me, do you stand up and speak out when you encounter a moment of unexpected joy, warmth, beauty or compassion in your life? Do you stop to say so when you stumble across something that makes you smile- or are you in the dull habit of registering the remarkable without remark? Are you a bystander of beauty, a mute spectator of special-ness? Do you let the silver-lining moments of the day slide into an insignificant silence — or do you seize them as the chance to make something bloom?” A stirring call to be vocal in times of beauty. http://premiere.whatcounts.com/t?ctl=16998AD:C3009629A010612C5EF42942449FEA20B4B847859706E37D&
