‘Without the rigidity of concepts, the world becomes transparent and illuminated, as though lit from within.
With this understanding, the interconnectedness of all that lives becomes very clear.
We see that nothing is stagnant and nothing is fully separate, that who we are, what we are, is intimately woven into the nature of life itself.
Out of this sense of connection, love and compassion.’- Sharon Salzberg, Lovingkindness: The Revolutionary Art of Happiness
‘Why are we platforming misfits,
heralding them as newly rich successes,
while they balance on creaking ladders with little
chance of social mobility?
I can’t help usher them into this house if there
are doors within it they can’t open. It feels complicit.
What I can do is be transparent about my experiences,
because transparency helps.‘- Michaela Coel
‘I can’t help usher them into this house if there are doors within it they can’t open.’
Whatever you do in your life, be transparent. You are not alone. Other people are watching you. Adults are watching you. Kids are watching. Above all, you are watching yourself.
