Mike shared an airport shuttle from SJC to the BlogHer hotel with someone who gave him a most unusual and elegant card. We looked at her website this morning. She's using rose petals now instead of paint. An ephemeral tribute to a lasting sadness.
“I no longer wish to go about living life as usual without acknowledging the widespread violence in the world today and memorializing those killed and injured in the many wars and other conflicts taking place. I chose this very public expression of my concerns in order to provide others who feel the same need a means of expressing their concerns too. As you will see on this site, there are many ways to participate in this project – some very private, and some public – but all conducted in silence. My hope is that together, through our shared participation, we can create a shift in consciousness, where no humanity is devalued and human life is held sacred.”
