Today’s quotation is in relation to the Inner Development Goal of
Connectedness.
The IDG website has this to say about it:
“Having a keen sense of being connected with and/or being a part of a larger whole, such as a community, humanity or global ecosystem.”
My response is:
“I am
paying attention to small beauties,
whatever I have – as if it were our duty
to find things to love, to bind ourselves to this world.” – Sharon Olds
And you? What are your thoughts?
On 31 October I am running a free online creative conversation about the IDGs. More information and bookings here.
“Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be. This is the interrelated structure of reality.”
Dr Martin Luther King Jr.
I keep coming back to this because it speaks to me in every way…community and seeking beauty in small things.
I feel too many are cut off from their communities, and are waiting for the big thrill.
