Morning Walk January 30, 2012 – Posted by rachel lapierre It was a beautiful morning and I decided to take advantage of the lovely weather and go out for a walk. I was feeling grateful for the fresh air, sun shining, and birds chirping and all of a sudden came across this sign on the sidewalk! It said "good morning, go on an adventure, make a stranger smile". What a wonderful and unexpected message to read! Random acts of kindness come in so many different shapes and forms, I’m scheming of how to pay it forward this week!

The Visionary Architecture of Paolo Soleri

Architecture is the reaching out for the truth. — Louis Kahn

~~~~
Inspiration of the Day:
Architect Paolo Soleri is regarded as a visionary, much to his dismay. His thought and vision combines the ethical and the metaphysical in terms of how to structure and build our cities. He says, for example, “We have reached the point where we understand the appearance of self-awareness is one of the most incredible things that’s happened in the universe. So, slowly we are developing some kind of responsibility to do in the universe what it has allowed us to do.” To him, ultimately, this would be a form of service. In his words, “Service, number one, to ourselves. Number two to the biosphere. Number three to reality.” To survive, we must, as he says, “develop more knowledge, more tolerance, more wisdom, and become aware of what we call love or compassion.” It’s not the language of an ordinary architect.

Be The Change:
As humans, we are constantly architecting: designing, building, creating. Today, make an effort to make that more conscious.
