To be honest, a few days ago I thought that the intense enthusiasm some people were having for the solar eclipse was a bit much. I was wrong. What I have seen over the last few days, and today during the solar was a global happiness over a celestial phenomenon. Today’s solar eclipse was something the entire world could share together and enjoy as a whole. That is rare. That is special.

This was a good check for me personally because I do not want to get to a point where I am jaded. With the extreme atrocities and climate change, it’s hard to find those bright spots. A huge thanks to everyone who shared their thoughts about the importance of this global experience we were all fortunate to be a part of.
People traveled far and wide to witness a full solar eclipse and the pictures that have emerged have been as spectacular.

It’s refreshing to see everyone across the world happy. It shows how united we can be over the love of our planet.
Hopefully that energy can expand into other aspects like excitement for nature. To experience the eclipse, the world was outdoors. Explore the outdoors further and that same awe over celestial wonders can also be experienced in nature.
Share the things that you are excited for and what you love. This world is in desperate need for the momentum to shift toward good.
We have genocides to end. We have oppression to end. We have colonialism to end. We have capitalism to end. We have a long list of things we have to demolish, but what we can never give up on is what we love and our shared joys.
Today we shared our excitement, our love, and that is what builds humanity. Tomorrow may we share peace and progress to protect that humanity.
May this whole world be free.
