"It is from numberless diverse acts of courage such as these that the belief that human history is thus shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples to build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance."

From the Montana campaign trail
Well, here it is. The day we've been working for. We'll never know if we were able to sway any of those undecideds we've talked to over the last two months, but we did our best, and in the process learned a lot about ourselves and a whole lot about Barack Obama and his vision and plan for our country. I hope, at the end of the day, or by mid-week, the decision will be made, and he'll be our nominee. I'm looking forward to his debates with McCain.
Today we'll do more Get Out the Vote. We have li… Continue
Last night I had one of those moments.
Last night I had one of those moments.
One of those moments that while you’re experiencing it, there’s that tiny voice in your head that keeps saying –Wow, Wow, Wow.
One of those moments that even while you’re experiencing it, it’s like you’re also watching yourself experience it.
I’ve had these moments before – they’re few and far between – probably what makes them so shocked through with energy and immediacy.

"This place will turn into Disneyland if we don’t have anybody that actually lives here."
Christine Walker, director of the Teton County Housing Authority, which works to provide affordable housing for Jackson workers to keep the Wyoming resort town viable.

Dishwashing around the United States
I was listening to an episode of This American Life today called Road Trip!
One of the stories was about this guy that travels from dishwashing job to dishwashing job on the Greyhound.
He's written a book called: Dishwasher: One Man's Quest to Wash Dishes in All Fifty States
by Pete Jordan
Here's a short excerpt about the book from Amazon:
"For 12 years, Jordan (aka Dishwasher Pete) tramped about the U.S. washing dishes. Despite a… Continue

I spent quite a bit of time at Esalen Institute and Mount Madonna Center (both intentional communities/holistic learning centers in CA) a few years back. I think Kalani will be similar, and it's about time to do the retreat center thing again!! :)
