You write a line that requires the future to reveal its meaning.*
Nick Cave

If you have come here to help me, you are wasting your time. But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together.**
Lilla Watson

Repeating yesterday is always an option – and
so is provoking the future to reveal itself as something
different, hopeful, better, and beginning
to build it;
Through our powers, energies, and values,
We each know how to do this,
Connect to these and we become
future-makers, but
better still is bringing our perspectives
together, the more diverse the merrier^ –
Even to connect in this way is to begin
creating.

This is what we need more of. Determined, caring, creative people building things that take a while.^^
