space EditorEditor’s note: Dear Friends, This week I’m reminded of the power and strength that resides in each of us. I was really inspired by some of the stories this week, where individuals find their inner strength or help another person reclaim their own power. The ability to be strong not just in the face of our own adversities, but be wholeheartedly emphatic with others, while they fight their own battles is the stuff of greatness. — Guri space

Building a Reading Revolution

Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.

– Joseph Addison –

Building a Reading Revolution

As more and more people obsessively stare into their smart phones and tablets, the world seemingly grows a little more disconnected. But the folks at The Reader Organization, an award-winning charity and social enterprise, have gone about reversing that trend by offering to get people together to simply read aloud to each other. The benefits of this straightforward exercise are quite evident: improved self-confidence, a heightened sense of belonging, and a chance to interact with people you wouldn’t otherwise meet in your normal day-to-day life. { read more }

Moving Beyond the Blame Game

Moving Beyond the Blame Game

Why do we waste so much energy looking for someone to blame when something doesn’t go our way? Dr. Brené Brown provides us with valuable insight into how the constant search for blame limits the meaningfulness of our relationships. Brené Brown is a highly respected researcher on the subject of vulnerability. She has mastered using the art of storytelling and self-disclosure to bring life and practical meaning to the data she’s collected and analyzed for over 10 years. Equally important is that Brené also shows us it’s okay to laugh at ourselves as we acknowledge our imperfections.

The Power of Landspeak

Words are finite organs of the infinite mind.

– Ralph Waldo Emerson –

The Power of Landspeak

Under pressure, Oxford University Press revealed a list of the entries it no longer felt relevant to a modern-day childhood, including acorn, bluebell, buttercup, dandelion, ivy, lark, and mistletoe. The outdoor and the natural are displaced by the indoor and the virtual — a small but significant symptom of the simulated life we increasingly live. And what is lost is the power that certain terms possess to enchant our relations with nature and place. { read more }

Be The Change

Remember from your childhood a few meaningful words that express the beauties of nature and bring them into your vocabulary today.

The Cross Road of Should & Must

There are two paths in life: should and must. We arrive at this crossroads over and over again. And every day, we get to choose.

– Elle Luna –

The Cross Road of Should & Must

“When we choose Should, weâre choosing to live our life for someone or something other than ourselves. The journey to Should can be smooth, the rewards can seem clear, and the options are often plentiful…Must is different. Must is who we are, what we believe, and what we do when we are alone with our truest, most authentic self. Itâs that which calls to us most deeply. Itâs our convictions, our passions, our deepest held urges and desires â unavoidable, undeniable, and inexplicable. Unlike Should, Must doesnât accept compromises.” { read more }
