“Because in every universe in which I am alive,

it is because of other people.

And I don’t always like them, but I love them.

In every universe in which I am alive,

it is less because I could fight…

and more because I could forgive.

Because I could cooperate.

Because I could apologize.

Because I could dance.

Because I could grow pumpkins in my backyard

and leave them at myneighbor’s door, asking for nothing in return.

[...]

Survival is not a fortress; it is a garden.

Survival is not a siren; it is asymphony.”

Let your heart sing to that symphony. Let your spirit dance. Dare to cultivate a generous heart in a hurting world. What wonders we might grow, together.

So may it be.
