How shall I live?

No longer will I feel ashamed of expressing love. It has become something I believe this world desperately needs. The key is this: it’s simple – you can give it to yourself.

No longer will I feel ashamed of writing about what I think is utterly beautiful, using whatever words come to me. What is important is that this is a natural outpouring of appreciation – an acknowledgement that I can see and experience the beauty of life on Earth. Violence exists, but all forms of violence eventually need to heal.

I look towards those who inspire – with their words, minds, bodies, images and music. I look towards those who keep us alive by their devotion to beauty.

Now in this time when it truly seems like the world is going insane, I will focus on what it means to be beauty itself. To live a life immersed in my ideals. To feel the source of the beautiful radiating from within and to realize that – yes – it is very possible for us to create a world based on love just as surely as we have created one based on inequality.

I no longer want to believe in archaic myths that are inapplicable to a humanity conscious of its potential. I want to create something new.

“I salute the light within your eyes where the whole Universe dwells. For when you are at that center within you and I am that place within me, we shall be one.” – Crazy Horse
