Being silent
Being silent
Just isn’t an option
If you like
A community for growth,
A connection.

The natural solution
The natural solution:
We already have
What we need
We’ll be there
Mission:
Change the story.
It’s your time to shine.
Wherever your journey takes you,
We’ll be there.

The taste of Italy
We are delighted to sit down,
To welcome
The one from Italy,
Constantly evolving with all the local color.
We can
Spice up your mornings,
If you like.
You’ll love a celebration,
Rapido e semplice!
May you never become
A long lost relative.
– Carolina Perrone
Confession
The rose that grew from concrete by Tupac Shakur
Did you hear about the rose that grew
from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature’s law is wrong it
learned to walk without having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping its dreams, it
learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete
when no one else ever cared.
It takes imagination
I know now that
It takes imagination
For humankind
To make progress.
Make no small plans.
Act.

I am here
I am here
So deeply engaged
Grateful to stand on this very land
Bold enough
To decide to be here
Instead of traveling familiar
And well worn regions
To study, teach, work,
To
Begin
To
Pay attention.
I am here

The patience of ordinary things by Pat Schneider
It is a kind of love, is it not?
How the cup holds the tea,
How the chair stands sturdy and foursquare,
How the floor receives the bottoms of shoes
Or toes. How soles of feet know
Where they’re supposed to be.
I’ve been thinking about the patience
Of ordinary things, how clothes
Wait respectfully in closets
And soap dries quietly in the dish,
And towels drink the wet
From the skin of the back.
And the lovely repetition of stairs.
And what is more generous than a window?
~ Pat Schneider
