My life thus far has been a scattering of moments of joy, despair, curiosity, wonder, and sadness strung together like a strand of mis-matched beads... that most would find rather tacky, but I find suits my taste quite well.

“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.”  - Albert Einstein

Listen to the mustn'ts, child. Listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me… Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.

Shel Silverstein (via wordsnquotes)

I adore “Where the Sidewalk Ends” This was Shel Silverstein was my first favorite poet as a child.  :)

Racism is alive and well in education, housing, employment, and yes, treatment by police. The system is broken, justice is not equal, there are countless men and women of color who have been injured, beaten, or killed at the hands of those entrusted to keep us alive because they were seen us less than human because of the color of their skin. 

Thank you Elizabeth Warren for being a voice of truth and trying to wake up white America to their priviledge and the racist system that is America. Change is happening. #Love it!

 I adore Elizabeth Warren!

I don’t think art is propaganda; it should be something that liberates the soul, provokes the imagination and encourages people to go further. It celebrates humanity instead of manipulating it.
