“While this kind of project does not directly address the growing backlash in our country, the corruption in our city government, the lack of affordable housing, police violence and lack of accountability, or the climate emergency, it does create an antidote to fear, more community resilience, and strengthens our imaginations. From the latter, who knows where we can go?”

From the latter, who knows where we can go? My heart really needed this reminder, that these projects matter perhaps not for what they create so much externally but for the transformation they bring about within and between each of us 🙏❤️

I really needed these words a couple years ago! Still they are relevant today. As I type the words “we must pull in our antennas so that we can hear ourselves think & feel, and remind ourselves to breathe deeply, and to recognize the tendrils of beauty that sit in front of us.” So much beauty when my eyes stop searching for solutions.
