Endlose Wände.
Schatten an Schatten gereiht.
Kein Licht am Ende.

---

Walls without ending,
One shadow on another.
Darkness at the end.

Violence's logic
fostered by War's turmoil
preferences Few
at Many's expense
So arise we must
demanding Ancestors' Wisdom
Peace of Our Conscience

Memory shapes peace by teaching us how to respond when harm occurs. When we remember honestly, we name suffering without letting it rule us. Shared remembrance slows blame and opens space for learning. It passes wisdom from one generation to the next, reminding us that restraint, patience, and care have ended conflict before. When memory is held together, not used as a weapon, it grows empathy and responsibility. We learn to choose repair over revenge and dialogue over force. In this way, memory steadies conscience, guides judgement, and helps our communities build a calmer, juster future for across our interconnected lives.

Rauschen überall,
Links ist Wald, rechts Autobahn,
Nur eines ist Klang.

Auch Beton wächst nach oben. A9, Saalebrücke, Thüringen-Bayern. Even concrete reaches upward. #Saalebrücke #A9 #Thüringen #brutalism #architecture #bridge #concrete #Beton #minimal

A bootlicking fellow named Ross
Worked in footwear and fawned on his boss.
Many co-workers mocked him.
One gal even socked him.
He's boss now ... and she's on the sauce.

The House We Sheltered In and The Masks We Wore: A Pandemic Picture Book

A picture book celebrating the joys of homebound life and the collective heroism of our fight against COVID-19.

Inspired by unshuttering one another to so shine …

#MicroReflection
Light is a reoccurring theme in much of these verses. This follows in a long tradition that embraces the poetic, the spiritual journey and the scientific parallels that recognise we are each an energy that emanates, emits and shines.

If we take this wisdom seriously, that we are light sources, then what does that mean if we nurture this capacity in ourselves and one another?
What practices do you pursue that help you harness your own light? In turn, how does this help you cultivate this in those around you?
