[2] Moments
This is all we've got
Some say we are living “the last moments of beauty” as a consequence of biodiversity loss. But I don’t want this to be true. I want this beauty to last forever.
And I want stewards of the planet to succeed in their endeavor – to care and protect, to commit and invest, to act and save.
I believe we can make this world more livable and lovable. All we need are little acts of Earthly (and humanly!) kindness ~ small steps today for big changes tomorrow ♥️
A word of wisdom
"Artists, designers, writers – let's do unreasonable work. [...] Let's find the edges. Let’s give the world the never before and the forever after. [...] Our place is to speak truth – that deep, aching, irreducible truth. We open doors to new thoughts. We connect the dots. We fight for beauty." – James Buckhouse
A sense of play
Open your doors to new thoughts.
We all get stuck in our own minds // our taste, interests, hobbies, amusements. But we also need new perspectives, new connections, new worldviews.
To step away from your routine, try this.
→ Browse the web, but don’t follow your taste. Do the opposite.
→ Create a Misc, Random, or similar folder/cluster/collection/space for this.
→ See an eye candy you'd love to save? Don't save it.
→ Come across a quote completely different from your own opinion? Save it.
→ Continue saving what you wouldn't typically notice.
→ Start now. Do it regularly. Let that peculiar gallery grow.
→ Revisit from time to time to broaden your horizons, make unexpected connections, discover new patterns, explore new concepts, embrace differences...
This can be great for expanding your knowledge and keeping your critical thinking skills sharp. Play around and have fun ✨️
A thing of beauty
The lands, the mountains, the valleys, the rivers, the forests, the seas... It's nature in all of its glory, and Katie Rodgers captures it so gracefully. Take a moment to savor it, and rest your eyes on Katie's art.

Start where you are.
