The direction of our lives needs to be positive. We weren’t born to cause trouble or do harm to others. For our life to be of value, I think we must develop good human qualities – warmth, kindness, compassion. Then our life will become meaningful and more peaceful – happier.

@BCDlane @BigCityDiner @kaimukihawaii @WindwardMall @waipiocenter @KailuaNEWS @Pearlridge Nice!!

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

The problems humanity faces today demand a positive mental attitude and a sense of compassion for others. I firmly believe we can solve the majority of our problems by developing a sense of universal responsibility—wanting to do something for others without a selfish motive.

@TeachGlobalEd Are you Covid positive or just stressed about Covid?

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

As long as a dead tree is more valuable to us than a living tree and as long as the destruction of nature is worth more than nature itself we won’t be able to solve the climate and ecological emergency.

I have 100% confidence young people are going to change this country for the better and build a better society for future generations.

We will fight to save our future, remove those that stand in our way and replace them to be the leaders they never were.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

"We are currently, in a systematic manner, exterminating all non-human living beings," Anne Larigauderie, IPBES executive secretary, told AFP."

It would be great if everyone would start to wake up. Like right now. #FaceTheClimateEmergency #EcoBreakdown

If you ever feel hopeless just remember that there are 10s of thousands newspapers & TVstations.
If only a few of them started treating the climate- and ecological crisis like a crisis, people would become aware and put pressure on leaders. Then everything could change overnight.
