May it prove out our resilience to adversity.
May it mark our renewed commitment to each other, to innocent creatures, and our living planet.
May we see the gift of 2020 with new eyes, for it allowed us to change.
To understand the importance of each person. To see that together we live or we die. It's up to each of us to be responsible for the choices made in our name, not someone on a pedestal pretending he knows....
May 2021 mark the path forward for justice. Social justice, each person living into their full potential free from social bias as to the limitations of their race. Climate justice, each person taking steps to reduce their impact on the land and hold faceless corporations feet to the fire. Cultural justice, raising up the cultures traditionally down-trodden due to colonialism and giving them back their land. They can lead the way.
The status quo is entrenched and many systems perpetuate it. There are better ways. Nimble, fair ways that don't fuel greed.
