Sunflower Fairytale
Once upon a time, I was just a little girl. Born under the burning summer’s sun into a teeny, tiny town where I lived for years and years and years.
In this little town of mine, there were rivers and lakes and streams. There were fruit trees and bushels and all of the raspberries, peaches, cherries and pears any little girl could dream of.
Save the Kale
Our generation exists in the midst of vast cultural and political change, both locally and globally. Our lives can often seem seized by capital interest and our society’s constant tendency to outsource, expand and globalize. The idea of a global neighborhood can be exciting and charged with change, but on the other hand, can simultaneously be quite terrifying and only established at a great cost: the sacrifice of culture, tradition and resource.
Nothing is Enough
In Buddhism, there are no definites. No definitions and no real lines, or labels explaining where you’re going and how to get there. Even the line between life and death is a blurry one. Buddhism is, in the most positive way, a religion about nothingness, and nothingness, as I have learned, is bliss.
