Unconscionable

I can’t be empathetic if I am feeding off of the entrails of my fellow human beings and to assuage my conscience I refuse to see and acknowledge their humanity. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2022

Consciousness

We have to be conscious of who we are. Who people say we are is negligible, as it is us who decide what labels we want to be guided by. The repository of knowledge does not abide outside of us, it lives and dwells within us. When we know ourselves we become the miracle we […]
