"How to Stay Calm in a Storm"

~ Thich Nhat Hanh

 

“In the absence of the rules of law, 

there is chaos.”

“I believe that we all have an opportunity to feel our soul’s connection to humanity.” ~ Justine Naumann Greif

“I realize that there are lives that have not necessarily been colored by issues of oppression and violence. The problem may not be yours but the response for the solutions belongs to everyone. We must create a vision of a caring society and articulate that vision with a collective voice that can be heard. I believe that we all have an opportunity to feel our soul’s connection to humanity.” ~ Justine Naumann Greif, Maine Artist/Activist

“Hence my optimism in 2026…”
