Beginning anew
Wondering about fresh starts
Lifting my spirits towards
Lightness

I digress from what matters in front of me regardless

I continue

Relieved from oppressive taunts and bitter voices, she instead
walks freely finding ways to refresh her souls necessities

😲Did you know the global majority rejects nuclear weapons?

What that means is:
1⃣Most of the world’s countries are now part of the #NuclearBan Treaty🎉
2⃣They’ve chosen real security rooted in cooperation, not fear.

“If your compassion does not include yourself, it is incomplete.” Jack Kornfield

You’re allowed to pause.
You’re allowed to choose differently.
You’re allowed to care for yourself, too. 🧡

A bright, uplifting digital illustration on a white background. The heading reads “You are allowed to:” in bold black text beside a yellow smiling face. Beneath it, colourful shapes each hold handwritten phrases: red for “sleep in late,” blue for “change plans,” orange for “make a new decision,” purple for “treat yourself,” yellow for “take breaks,” green for “stop feeling guilty,” turquoise for “say no,” pink for “say yes” and “talk about your struggles,” and lilac for “not have answers.” The style feels warm, friendly, and encouraging, reinforcing permission, care, and self-compassion.

In South Korea, built this bike lane covered by #solar panels. Cyclists are isolated from traffic, protected from the sun, and produces #cleanenergy at the same time!

We have the solutions, implement them. #ActOnClimate

I just received my food delivery that I was able to purchase because I RECEIVED my SNAP benefits today. I sobbed. I didn't expect that reaction. I cried for the relief of having access to food but it was ALSO for the 42M under so much stress and for the MILLIONS who have NOT received their benefits.

Recent weeks have seen a rise in dangerous nuclear signalling, missile tests and nuclear exercises. These weapons are not safe in anyone’s hands. From irrational leaders to accidents, the only solution is to eliminate nuclear weapons. #nuclearban
