The Live and Give

To rewrite the cultural narratives that speak over those w/ no voice & even less opportunity, we engender better solutions #socinn #philtech #socent #impinv

[The Live and Give @theliveandgive]

We're taught to consume and some learn to save.

We're not taught to give.

I believe witnessing giving or experiencing it early in your life is as traumatic as violence, and in the same way this impacts your entire journey.
Seek ways to allow others to feel this tumultuous joy

How can we Enhance tech, Enrich community, Empower others 2 their impending bloom? My inner geometric core revolves around finding this sweetspot... everything else can be seen more clearly with a kaleidoscope.

[The Live and Give @theliveandgive]

Giving must be the basis of all of our solutions.

Analyzing how to give better requires us to challenge SENSITIVE cultural narratives - break down pain - build a more bountiful future.

This struggle begins with how we #FORGIVE others including ourselves.

[The Live and Give @theliveandgive]

Our differences don't force us to disagree.
We fight, because we want the same things.

[The Live and Give @theliveandgive]

We must be able to love, to be loved, and to vent when the the first two don't work out the way we want.

[David Perrier @peareyay]

Many times the issues that need awareness go unaddressed and without the ability to determine how 'what' gets distributed 'where' it boils over until when these issues no longer can be ignored. We need better giving solutions and universal access to giving.

Dependence on another sector is not #Sustainable and perpetuates a psychological profile of solicitation - a beggar’s mentality. 
This paternalistic pattern actively forces communities to compromise on what they value by asking for validation from others.

Our #giving behavior demonstrates how real power is the ability to distribute ‘what’ 2 ‘where’, & not having the ability 2 determine your own destiny is the source of #inequality.

2 impact & induce the #change required 2 challenge the implicit biases inherently entrenched in issues like #inequality & #injustice, we must reanalyze our giving behavior & infuse new approaches of analysis - incorporate bold & brave shifts in our perspective.

Current processes of #giving require #nonprofits & #innovators 2 overcome unrealistic obstacles 2 seek funding & awareness. How we acknowledge & #support value within the human condition across sectors, industries, & institutions.Beyond just market failure - a systems FAILURE.

EVERYDAY PROBLEMS REQUIRE MORE THAN ONCE IN A WHILE SOLUTIONS
The struggle is real, & 4 many, it persists 24 hours a day beyond the #gala or #5k or tax season or national emergency. They require solutions that fight back w/ a punch equal in magnitude 2 the missions we stand for

For many, food in your belly or shelter over your head depends on how good your story is. Why?

No more we must question even the most basic of our institutions.

Commitment to good marketing outperforms
Commitment to be good to your constituency.

[David Perrier @peareyay]

IT'S A SHAME THAT OUR BEST SOLUTIONS COMPLETELY IGNORE ENTIRE COMMUNITIES: distract us / pit us across from each other 2 only control what we value - who we hate, fear, & fight. When we mobilize 2 act, systems intended 2 facilitate our better angels fail 2 protect what matters.

[David Perrier @peareyay]

The #universe blesses you how IT wants - not how YOU want. Relinquish control and allow for #gratitude to swell. When we don't have the ability to count our blessings, we should call that #mindfulness

[David Perrier @peareyay]

In some other language, 'Soul' means 'Community'.
