BUILD YOUR OWN LOTUS
Decisions being made right now will determine if the earth will be habitable for humans in the near future. Corporate greed has scarred our beloved Eden for centuries, but one can make the choice to live in joy, to rejoice in the beauty that survives. Thich Nhat Hahn said “No mud, no lotus”. We can wallow in the mud and muck of our worrisome world, or we create lotus blossoms with a life of hope and creativity.
