(page 145 of 408)
""And, while expressing gratitude seems innocent enough, it is a revolutionary idea. In a consumer society, contentment is a radical proposition. Recognizing abundance rather than scarcity undermines an economy that thrives by creating unmet desires. Gratitude cultivates an ethic of fullness, but the economy needs emptiness."

If that's not still so very true these days, IDK what is." — Feb 07, 2025 12:31PM

Theophanea’s Quotes

“right now, I am a rough draft;
I am here to be
revisited and revised.
hard as I try,
I am not the girl poets speak of.
I am not made up of ocean tides
and my heart is not a crystal drum;
it will always be a weapon
more than anything.
I am an incomplete masterpiece,
full of crossed-out words and changes.
no one ever calls the first draft beautiful,
and I will never be the final piece.”
― Caroline Kaufman, Light Filters in: Poems
