can’t stop thinking about this Mary Oliver poem 🥹

Makes me sad re-reading this amazing letter from ex-Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox sent to high school seniors in 1994 after they asked him “What should Americans learn from Watergate?” 20 years later in ‘94.

His answer is remarkable—unfortunately things didn’t work out so well in 2024.

Media Archetypes I’m drawing inspiration from these days; Dumbledore- “Dark times lie ahead of us, and there will be a time when we must choose between what is easy, and what is right”.
Thank you to J.K. Rowling ❤️ and banned books.

Mark Twain says, “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.”
In honor of that, let me share some pics of Tikal with you, an ancient Mayan civilization dating back to 1000 BC. It’s important to reflect on the rise and fall of civilization, and what legacy we will leave behind.
