Don’t ask yourself what the world needs, ask yourself what makes you come alive and go do that because what the world needs is people who have come alive.
Howard Thurman (1899–1981), Minister, civil rights activist,
author of The Luminous Darkness
“This is one of my absolute favorite quotes because I do think it’s about doing the inner work to align yourself. For me to align myself is to be in flow with something larger and not just reacting to this cultural moment. It is about coming from the deeper resources of our natural history and intelligences that are larger than myself, including the earth. That is what our book is about, The Order of the Sacred Earth: An Intergenerational Vision of Love and Action and Howard Thurman was so able to create change and inspire a fire of revolution that continues to glow today.”
