There are stories only you have to tell, because there is no one who looks at the world in the way you do. There is no one else who listens to the whispers tucked in a soft breeze or understands the wilting petals whimpering. There is no one who feels the earth in the way you do. You are the one.

"All water has a perfect memory and is forever trying to get back to where it was."
“If you surrender to the air, you can ride it.”
“But the difference is they dying like a stump. Me, I’m going down like one of those redwoods. I sure did live in this world.”

KAMA SUTRA: A TALE OF LOVE Directed by Mira Nair (1996)
Watching the sunset in Santa Barbara.
Biden has won. Celebrate today but get back to work asap.
This win does not mean everything that has happened in the United States this year or over the years should be forgotten.
Black Lives Still Matter. Police Brutality is very much still present in the american system. White Supremacists unfortunately still exist. Sexism unfortunately still has a place in society. Women are still not considered as equal.
LGBTQIA people matter. BIPOC matter. Racism is not okay. Being ISLAMOPHOBIC is not okay. Climate Change is real. Science is real.
There is a lot of work that needs to be done. We rejoice today and tomorrow we got back to educating ourselves, educating our community, learning about our privileges and doing our best everyday to make our environment a better place and hence make the world a better place.
Also WEAR A MASK.
I have not been able to concentrate on anything but this election the past 2 days.
Honestly though, Dems better get their shit together and give back to the Black/Indigenous/POC communities who are coming through for them in the swing states.
Now, let's go, go, go! Bring down the facist!
そのいのち(Sono Inochi) // 中村佳穂 (Kaho Nakamura)
Listening to the live version of this song brings me so much joy. Kaho Nakamura is incredible and her album AINOU is worth giving a listen to.
“There is so much beauty in where you come from. So much that it terrifies some that do not come from there. This, the way you adorn your lips with their language when they cannot even begin to speak yours. This, the softness with which you carry both your culture and other one you are learning. These, the shoulders on which you bear two countries. And even when their words taunt the way this second language sits in your mouth, you hold your head up with pride. You wear your words so beautifully, even on a foreign tongue they flow with majesty. Splitting oceans and continents apart, you have grown in another land, and you are made of such survival, you have built a home in another. Your ancestors are proud, they are, of everything you have done, everything you have become.”
— Nikita Gill, Immigrant
