Would you leave it all behind?

Hola,
That is what Iris concludes, in the book Another Now, once she was offered the option to go to another dimension. A dimension where a fairer society exists. Indeed it sets a valid perspective to assess what are we fighting for when we make decisions towards a better world. If you are offered the chance to go to this other dimension, would you go? Even knowing that you will leave behind this world cursed with social and economic inequality and a non-reversible environmental struggle? I invite all of you to reflect on this. You may find, same as me, the motivation to keep believing that a better world is possible. Or you will decide to leave it all behind... same as I also think sometimes.
We are starting the last week of February, and I can't wait for spring to begin. It was a sunny weekend in Berlin with already spring temperatures, and I feel recharged after getting some sun and fresh air. I know some of you are starting an exciting period of your lives, and I wish you tons of fun in your adventures. For everyone, stay healthy and positive. The best is just about to begin!
Find here a list of things I found worth sharing from last week:
- Relax. with this curated list of relaxing ambience videos (If the content is shown to you under a paywall, try opening the link in incognito mode). Also, I found this 30 minutes video of relaxing visuals from Studio Ghibli scenes.
- Play. with this website that keeps finding images with the same energy based in your selection. What a cool project!
- Read. all the poems hosted in Pretty Cool Poetry Thing. I'm more excited to see the use of technology as a wow factor when used as a medium for poetry. A new poem is being added every day. This is for me a very inspiring work! Uff, I'm looking forward to more projects like this! Tech ♥️ Poetry.
- Waste. your time checking how popular websites like BBC, Apple or The New York Times used to be 10 years ago.
- Dream.I don't even know if this is interesting or not, but being able to communicate with lucid dreamers might be used as a certain type of alternative therapy.
- Aww♥️. This hero saved this poor otter from being eaten by a killer whale! (Thanks Matheus for the video!)
Thanks for reading and have a nice week!
