🚨This is a Red Alert for net neutrality 🚨

Last December, the FCC voted to to kill net neutrality. If we do not take action, this will kill the free and open internet as we know it. The internet needs you—all of you—to make sure your voices are heard NOW.

We need all hands on deck for this one. It may be our last chance. If you’re feeling under-informed and overwhelmed about why net neutrality is so incredibly important, we have this handy guide just for you.

Here’s what you can do to save the internet:

In mid-May, the Senate will vote on a resolution to overrule the FCC using the Congressional Review Act (CRA). We only need one more vote in the Senate to win. Write or call your Senators or Representatives. You can also text BATTLE to 384-387 to get more information on how to write to your reps. You can do this, Tumblr.
Join us and dozens of your other favorite companies like Etsy, Vimeo, Reddit, and GitHub to raise awareness with the Red Alert campaign being run by Battle for the Net. Just add this small widget to your Tumblr to let your followers know how they can contact their reps. It’s as easy as copying and pasting the small line of code right into the customize theme page on the web.

This is important. This matters. It’s up to you to help.

The easiest thing to be in the world is you. The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be. Don’t let them put you in that position.

Fleeting Things

For CNirvana

Why do poets and photographers love fleeting things?

Angled shafts of sunlight piercing massed clouds

A rainbow flashing from a dragonfly’s wing

Water drops beading like shards of glass

The fluttering shape of a sycamore’s shade

The sun sinking into its reflection

In a purple bay. Smoke’s shadow. The rayed

Curve of a finger reaching for perfection

Whatever churns, bursts, rocks, flies,

Foams, flickers, roils, evades

In pigments of impermanent dyes

We try to fix before it fades

Once I thought we mourned the endless dying

Of here and now, the present always past

That we elegized each moment, sighing

Beauty is loss and can never last

But now I think I had it wrong. In fact

(I learned this from an artist’s eye)

Fleeting beauty reappears faster than we react,

At the speed of daydreams flashing by.

All around, light coalesces into form

Form explodes into light

And we live lavishly inside this storm

If we can learn to see it right.

Beauty multiplies, tapering, swelling,

Reshaping, reforming, now familiar, now strange.

This gaudy blur in which we’re dwelling

Is the permanence of change.

philperspective asked:

What ever happened to The Yellow Umbrella?

Thanks for asking! It's a continuous project. Up to 10 models now I think. It may be saved for a book.

The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.

“One doesn’t stay in a state of nirvana by hiding from difficulties. You stay in nirvana by lavishing nirvana on everyone you meet, by giving it away as fast as you receive it.”

Surrender becomes so much easier when you realise the fleeting nature of all experiences and that the world cannot give you anything of lasting value. You then continue to meet people, to be involved in experiences and activities, but without the wants and fears of the egoic self. That is to say, you no longer demand that a situation, person, place, or event should satisfy you or make you happy. Its passing and imperfect nature is allowed to be. And the miracle is that when you are no longer placing an impossible demand on it, every situation, person, place, or event becomes not only satisfying but also more harmonious, more peaceful.
