No choice but to change. We have hit a major marker in our path forward both in politics and the natural environment. How we live , where we live and the future as we hope it to be. This is a time for clarity in how we see ourselves, how we are and how we need to be. The reality of our living.
This is not an issue of choice. Our time of bounty has passed. It is a strong matter of the future, to have a future. To not just save the sinking ship but to build a new one, not an arc but a rocket, fueled by idea, wonder and bravery. Guided by hope and will.
Jenny Holzer
What will save us is our creative mind and collective drive, our acceptance of how things are and what can be. The responsibility to the facts and humanity, though flawed and lost. Hope and change in a material world.

This is a time to both act and to wonder. To upset the patriarchy and steer a new course. Our government is broken, but the future needn’t be. We have within us the capability, we are in fact adaptable. Having created greatness in our histories, we can create greatness for your futures. Now. We must allow the dreamers to foresee, the writers to inspire and the creators to build. This will be our ground work. Our pebbled path forward. Savior.

We see the task before us and know the fear within us, the only choice is there is no choice. To fight the great fight and dream a bigger dream.
