Stars are born, travel from their birth place, grow, shine their light for the universe to see and eventually die. We are not greater than the stars. Accepting this fact allows one to understand how fleeting life truly is.
Our prime #purpose in #life is to #help others. And if you can't help them, at least, don't #hurt them... Dalai Lama
Trapped in a #plastic bag at a landfill in Spain, the photographer who took this shot later freed the stork...
There is no planet B, there aren't enough photographers to catch all the birds caught in plastic.
Our planet is dying and we are the killers.

Cuba ~ End the Embargo
‘If #JoeBiden or frankly any US politician #cared about the #Cuban #people, they’d push for an end to the US’s #crippling #economic sanctions on Cuba.’
‘All people have the right to #protest and to live in a #democratic #society. I call on the Cuban government to #respect opposition rights and refrain from violence. It’s also long past time to end the #unilateral #US #embargo on #Cuba, which has only #hurt, not #helped, the Cuban #people.’ …. #BernieSanders
‘It’s important to remember that before the #Cuban #Revolution, Cuba was a #colonial #piggy-bank for #American #capitalists to #exploit. The revolution stopped the United States from treating Cuba like its little plaything, which the United States has never been able to accept.’
‘The US continually punishes #Haiti & Cuba because these are nations that successfully #revolted against #white #supremacist #empires in generations past.’
‘The #whole #world has spoken against the US embargo against Cuba. In the #UN #GeneralAssembly, 184 countries voted to #condemn the #blockade. Only two, the US and #Israel, voted not to. Cuba loses $9.1 billion a year due to the blockade.’
‘Not only is the US blockading Cuba, they are claiming #veto #power over any other country which wishes to send Cuba #food and #medicine.’
‘The choice is clear. Which side are we on? The US, which continues to #violate #international #law by decades of crippling #sanctions even in the face of a #pandemic, or Cuba, which has created five different vaccines and sent thousands of #doctors to #heal #people around the world?’
‘Nobody is charged a dime in Cuba for their #treatment. But in the US, people are denied treatment unless they have tens of thousands of dollars to pay for medical bills. Again, which side are you on?’
‘In addition, Cuba has: – #Guaranteed #salaries; – #Nationalized #BigPharma; – #Distribution of #food, #electricity, and piped #water.’
‘The US is trying to create a #self-fulfilling #prophecy with Cuba. Cripple it with #decades of sanctions, then try to initiate an #astroturf #regime #change operation. This is typical M.O. for the #PoliceState.
'Never forget the explicitly stated goal of the US government’s murderous, #illegal, 60-year blockade on Cuba: to " #weaken the economic #life of Cuba," and " #decrease #monetary and #real #wages, to bring about #hunger, #desperation and #overthrow of #government."
#EndTheEmbargo #HandsOffCuba #VivaCuba! #VivaLaRevolucion! #VivaElPuebloCubano!
Blame
"You hurt me" when you blame me,
like this
do you not see it is your own karma sauntering towards you,
haunting you taking your hand, leading you?
surfacing of underlying impulse, create conflict, one stumbles,
had you maintained the clarity of mind?
who could hurt
you?
that anyone could do so, is impossible;
In the full moon reflected in puddled water is the Wonder of you!
sometimes the puddle is murky, and moon does not quite
reflect;
How can another hurt
you? You who have gone beyond the Concept
of
"You", "I" and "other"
