“Look at the sky: that is for you. Look at each person’s face as you pass on the street: those faces are for you. And the street itself, and the ground under the street, and the ball of fire underneath the ground: all these things are for you. They are as much for you as they are for other people. Remember this when you wake up in the morning and think you have nothing.”

- Miranda July, No One Belongs Here More Than You (via larmoyante)

“Chapter One
I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I fall in.
I am lost …. I am helpless.
It isn’t my fault
It takes forever to find a way out.

Chapter Two
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend I don’t see it.
I fall in again.
I can’t believe I am in this same place.
But, it isn’t my fault
It still takes a long time to get out.

Chapter Three
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I see it there.
I still fall in … it’s a habit … but,
my eyes are open.
I know where I am.
It is my fault.
I get out immediately.

Chapter Four
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.

Chapter Five
I walk down another street.”

“He wanted all to lie in an ecstasy of peace; I wanted all to sparkle and dance in a glorious jubilee. I said his heaven would be only half alive; and he said mine would be drunk: I said I should fall asleep in his; and he said he could not breathe in mine.”

“I loved you head over handles
like my first bicycle accident—
before the mouthful of gravel and blood,
I swore we were flying.””

The United Nations wants to hear from you.

The United Nations wants to hear from you.:

So I work at the ILO, a UN agency, and as someone who takes a keen interest in human rights, development issues, equality, justice, etc., I think this survey is a great idea from the UN! They created a survey to get people’s voices on the world they want to live in post-MDGs. The progress and unified efforts made in pursuit of achieving the MDGs (Millennium Development Goals), which are set for completion in 2015, have brought us much further than I would have imagined.

All they ask is for you to simply vote for changes that would make the most difference to your world. Being involved in the social dialogue which is guiding progress is the least you can do, so go ahead…

“In the run up to 2015, MY World will continue gathering people’s voices and results will be shared with the Secretary-General and other global leaders. This initiative is coordinated by UNDP, the United Nations Millennium Campaign, ODI and the Web Foundation – with the support of partners across the world.

The United Nations and partners invite citizens everywhere to take the survey, and join the post-2015 process to define the world we want after 2015.”
