What does Sara have to say?
Writing to you from: British Columbia
Weather: Warming up because spring is here but we are all stuck inside because of Covid-19
Crazy times this Covid-19. Not sure what I think about the whole lock down approach. At the end of the day the death rate is likely 0.1% – like the standard flu – since they are not testing the bulk of people. So will it be worth the impact to people’s lives or is this Orwellian times creeping up on us
Sara’s OP ED
If people want to be in your life they make an effort. If they don’t, then you are better off without them.
It’s not that we have a philosophical difference with the fuel industry, it is just that their business model is destroying the planet!
~Bill McKibben~May we never let the pettiness of past lives filter into the grandeur of our own!
We can’t change whether people love us or not; people that love us, love us unconditionally.
What we see is what our mind projects to be true. Don’t like what you see, change your thoughts.
You are beautiful being who and what you are, and no one should ever try to shut you down nor should you let them. Shine with the brightness of what the Universe gave you.
The first to apologize is the bravest; the first to forgive is the wisest; and the first to forget is the happiest.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
