Today is ten years since 911.

I think people have learned a lot. Most of us are more grateful, and know life is precious. We also are more careful.

But as a nation, our learnings and our practices seem a bit one-sided. More than ever, we are the bully.

More than ever, we are insistent that things need to be done OUR way.

I don’t advocate being a pushover, nor letting the complacency or lesser ideas rule us. But I do think that the people with lesser voices, as well as the animals and the planet need a voice.

It would be nice to see us eat more naturally, and take better care of our animals, waterways, land and air, for the benefit of all living beings. It’s relevant here because nature gives us all a sense of peace, and freedom, such that we don’t need to fight for it.

May you have a peaceful and meaningful day.
