ALL LIFE IS INTERRELATED
“It really boils down to this: that all life is interrelated. We are all caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied into a single garment of destiny. Did you ever stop to think that you can’t leave for your job in the morning without being dependent on most of the world? We aren’t going to have peace on earth until we recognize this basic fact of the interrelated structure of all reality.” (remixed from Martin Luther King, “A Christmas Sermon on Peace”)

BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE 2011

By Dave @ theMOVE

IT’S ALL OVER! — watch our youtube video!
What an incredible season it’s been — thank you to all the beautiful people, from every corner of Boston, who joined us out this year. Sustainability at its core is about our survival, interbound. Together we labored for ourselves and others. We exposed our interdependency, our impact, and our agency. And we connected — to amazing fresh food, to the labor and the land that sustain us, and to each other. Connecting with you continues to inspire us, and motivates us to keep building. Happy 2011!

So changing the way my low-income neighborhood ate became my new motivation.” (excerpted from Roy Friyas, WhyHunger Connect Blog)
