"If we can transform ourselves, we have the potential to change the world." --Laura van Dernoot Lipsky
How to Change the World with Hot Cocoa & Neruda
"Wake up. Don't press snooze. Sling your legs over the side of the bed. Right. Left. Turn on music. Good, good music...You need a life soundtrack. Has anyone told you that yet? Pick out something spectacular from your closet. Feel good in your skin. Put on an item that tells some kind of story. Always have a story to tell, just a wrist or coat sleeve away. And if that yellow sweater ain't got a story yet, vow that this will be the day it comes home with one." Hannah Brencher took the world by surprise by planting anonymous love letters at coffee shops, bookstores, and at other public places. In this piece, Hannah offers a melodious tune for inner and outer change wherever you find yourself in the world.
BE THE CHANGE
Change your routine by doing something different - like smiling at a stranger, walking instead of taking the subway, or writing down your dreams.
