Elon Musk's wrecking ball now swings at USAID, vaporizing humanitarian assistance, putting countless lives at risk, threatening to topple America's economic and moral standing and emboldening autocrats around the world.

Stand strong for our top humanitarian aid agency.
USAID headquarters in Washington are blocked after Musk says Trump agrees to close the aid agency
The developments come after Elon Musk said that he had spoken with President Donald Trump about the aid and development agency and “he agreed we should shut it down.”

The work of USAID is crucial to furthering the reputation of the USA globally through compassion. The attacks on USAID by Elon Musk and the Trump administration need to stop. We should strengthen compassion, not eliminate it.

You may believe man-made climate change contributed to the devastating LA Wildfires, or you may not.

But can we all simply agree that living in a healthier relationship to nature is a good thing we should strive to do?

15 years ago today, an earthquake struck Haiti, causing the deaths of over 220,000 people.

Absolutely wild day in Monrovia (Los Angeles area) witnessing the #EatonFire. Had friends lose their homes, lives lost. Devastation for many.

For you northerners
A geomagnetic storm could make the northern lights visible across the northern fringe of the U.S. on New Year’s Eve, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Another geomagnetic storm could make the lights visible again after sundown on New Year’s Day. nyti.ms/4iRkYOl

Discovering and disseminating wisdom is the most crucial activity for the future of humanity and life on Earth. Fundamental to doing that is humility.

In a world of increasing noise, silence becomes the most valuable resource.

Do you have a meditation or contemplative practice to experience silence?

This was the #NotreDameDeParis last summer when I was in Paris. Very happy to see it has now been fully restored. Something so majestic ought to be seen.

I've recently been thinking about how creativity is something that often comes when we let go of trying to be creative. This is like that. dylanraines.com/the-missing-...

My 8 week old son took us to get his very first Christmas tree! I’m really enjoying being this little guy’s dad 😀

Little actions make big impacts on our daily lives.

Go for more walks, take meditation breaks to contemplate stillness.

Find moments to be present, and bring greater peace into your life.
