Join 📚 Carla's Highlights
A batch of the best highlights from what Carla's read, .
You are not thrown to the winds . . . you gather certainly and safely around yourself, Yourself! Yourself! Yourself forever and ever! It is not to diffuse you that you were born of your mother and father—it is to identify you, It is not that you should be undecided, but that you should be decided; Something long preparing and formless is arrived and formed in you, You are thenceforth secure, whatever comes or goes.
Leaves of Grass
Walt Whitman, American Renaissance Books
He had a strong feeling then of the wood protecting him, of nature bending to his will.
The Golden Key
Marian Womack
Being an ally can’t just be about nodding when someone says something we agree with—important as that is. It must also be about action. It’s our job to stand up for those who are not at the table where life-altering decisions are made. Not just those people who look like us. Not just those who need what we need. Not just those who have gained an audience with us. Our duty is to improve the human condition—in every way we can, for everyone who needs it.
