You are being unjust and denying it everyday.

Much less pressing than civil rights, it’s an appalling personal injustice that matters now.

The gross negligence and personal disrespect we have for our overall wellness is epic.

And no one is fighting for it, because the people in power (you and i) must sacrifice to get it.

Who would bite the hand that feeds them pleasure, comfort, entertainment, ease?

Hardly anyone.

Too Late?

“We are now faced with the fact, my friends, that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history, there is such a thing as being too late.

Procrastination is still the thief of time. Life often leaves us standing bare, naked, and dejected with a lost opportunity. The tide in the affairs of men does not remain at flood — it ebbs.

We may cry out desperately for time to pause in her passage, but time is adamant to every plea and rushes on. Over the bleached bones and jumbled residues of numerous civilizations are written the pathetic words, ‘Too late’.”  — Martin Luther King Jr

Dying isn’t the sad part. What’s tragic is living like we’re dead. Carpe diem is never overused when it’s your daily battle cry.
