The planet does not need more 'successful people'. The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers and lovers of all kinds. It needs people to live well in their places. It needs people with moral courage willing to join the struggle to make the world habitable and humane and these qualities have little to do with success as our culture is the set.

people overestimate what they can do in the single day and underestimate what they can do in their whole lives.

old enough to know better, young enough to do it anyway.

you deserve flowers on your doorstep and coffee in the morning. you deserve notes left on your dashboard and ice cream sundaes at 3 am. you deserve honesty every day and to be kissed every hour. you deserve to be reminded how beautiful you are.

expect nothing, appreciate everything.

2 am's were made for poets. lover/writers. visionaries. photographers. over thinkers. silent seeker. these are my favorite hours.

live, create, tell the story, repeat.

respond to every call that excites your spirit.

I have the deepest affection for intellectual conversations. The ability to just sit and talk. About love, about life, about anything, about everything. To sit under the moon with all the time in the world, the full-speed train that is our lives slowing to a crawl. Bound by no obligations, barred by no human limitations. To speak without regret or fear of consequence. To talk for hours and about what’s really important in life.

create something today even if it sucks.

everything is difficult until you know how to do it.
