THE SECRET IS . . .


there is no secret. You'll never magically have all the answers. The goal is not to prevent every problem; it's unrealistic to think that life will be conflict-free. 

The trick is to accept that there will be challenges, and be ready to tackle them. And when you or others fail, practice forgiveness. You might not have all the answers, but chances are that you can figure them out.

what we’re reading / listening to / watching / noticing / thinking about / captivated by this Tuesday…

Because it's never NOT pie season.

Our favorite sentiment of the week: It's not entertaining. It's having people over. (NYT)

If you plan to be in Brooklyn on November 4 (or are looking for an excuse to go), mark your calendar for Hot Bread Kitchen's first ever Kitchen Conference. Tickets and info here. 

The Youth Action Alliance is holding a Climate Encampment at Montpelier's Vermont State House this Thursday through Saturday, October 17-19. Join them for workshops, music, agroecology demos, and harvest dinners, all in the name of effecting change.
