When I was growing up in Brooklyn this poster hung on the wall in my family's kitchen. I have never forgotten it. It evokes compassion even fifty years later. ♡ In some ways, life is moving forward at break neck speed, to quick to even comprehend or settle into, in others.. not so much. 1/2

Right now, Mother Earth is rotating at 1000mph on a slight axis, about 23 degrees, which is what gives us the seasons. All of life is constantly moving as it will, and through grace, maybe we play a small part by adding a bit more love to it... - 1/2 #solstice

some days it may be better to taste the world, than be right. to lick every hope and dream till your tongue remembers what cool water from a concrete fountain on an overhot day feels like through your teeth. ♡ open.substack.com/pub/drewzmuz... #poetry

The library is the fountain of knowledge. From a fountain of knowledge flows critical thinking. From critical thinking flows democracy. From democracy flows our livelihoods. We know what flows from defunding libraries. Let us defend our libraries like our liberation depends on it. Because it does.

"Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love." ~ Rainer Maria Rilke

As we ‘spring ahead,’ the question I am contemplating this morning and today is: Who can we bring with us on the journey and what will we let go of as we move ahead? What can we save on our own and how can we work with community to preserve what truly matters? 🙏🏽😌 #Spiritchat

Just sitting... is under-rated.

A re-post from a year ago, and thus, a reaffirmation for me; since there are a few more of you. I am deeply grateful for all the personal messages I receive. open.substack.com/pub/drewzmuz...

If there is snow, touch it. If there is pie, eat it. If there's a line, write it.

"We’ve created a hyperconsumerist, hyperindividualist, isolated world that for a lot of people, much more like that first cage than it is like the bonded, connected cages that we need. The opposite of addiction is not sobriety. The opposite of addiction is connection." substack.com/@drewzmuze/n...

that's about right... 🙏🏽💔
