I want to say a huge thank you to everyone outside the US who stands in solidarity with us.
It means more to us than you will ever know. Sometimes Government's SUCK but "we the people" around the world have to stick together. You're good friends & we love you for it. ♥️

Mono (almost white) detail of a tulip, it looks like silk blowing in the wind.
I close the #TulipStudy with this image and add a #Reminder that
All life is precious
and so is living.
For too long have we suffered
systems which serve warmongers, billionaires & the power hungry.
Time to refuse to be complicit.
Time to choose to live.

not a necessity.
What is vital
is that we come together

Detail, view into the tulip. There’s a dynamic as if it was reaching for something.

WARS END

Why should we?
Because the only thing wars achieve is destruction. And we all pay the price for it.

We can’t afford not to.
We can’t afford wars.

Baltic Sea this morning, calm.
TOO MANY lines are blurred.
Too much noise keeps us from focusing.
We need to get away from explaining why something can’t be done, and get to:
HOW THE HECK CAN WE DO THIS?

Red banner stretched over a fence. Black letters say war is ecocide
As well as all the people being killed, injured and displaced in the current wars, they are also ecocide.

Wide open red tulip against the blue sky. The full quote from THE END OF ALL WARS is: ‘We normalised war. We made it into something that naturally occurs.’ ‘True. We observe our actions, and then we enshrine the observed as truth instead of realising that we can shape the way we act.’ ‘What exactly do you mean?’ ‘We know that nations have waged wars for centuries and so we assume that war is something we naturally do. There have been calls for peace—’ ‘—a long time ago,’ one of us mumbled. ‘True. But despite of these calls, we never truly questioned war. We said we don’t want wars, but we didn’t explore how to make sure that wars could never happen again.’ ‘We normalised war,’ one of us repeated thoughtfully. ‘But not just that. We normalised injustice, inequality, exploitation, hunger. In fact, we never challenged the way we deal with each other, the way we settle, the way we live, the way we do business. We didn’t dig deeper. Mostly we let things happen. And many of us simply accepted the systems around us as something that is, not as something we invented.’

Tulip flying in the wind against blue sky. The full quote from THE END OF ALL WARS is: ‘All wars are the result of a failure. A failure to communicate, a failure to cooperate, a failure to be rational, a failure to create, a failure to explore, a failure to empower. But the initial failure had been that we had never tried to end all wars — even though it is obvious that the only way to end one war is to end them all. The thinkers added: Curiosity is a key to end all wars because curiosity will allow us to explore instead of walling ourselves in, to open to the other instead of killing them, to evolve as a species instead of destroying ourselves.’

WINDOW WITHOUT A VIEW
A soberingly accurate image of a world that still believes in profits, wars, exploitation & in the necessity to destroy the basis of all life: nature — a world that lacks imagination & vision.
