Hello to you listening in Hinton, Alberta, Canada!Coming to you Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga."...human history is a history not only of cruelty but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness.What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places - and there are so many - where people have behaved magnificently, this gives us the energy to act, and at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction.And if we do act, in however small a way, we don't have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us is itself a marvelous victory." [Dr. Howard Zinn, inspired by the life & spirit of Fannie Lou Hamer]Story Prompt: You have the power to influence human history: to speak out, solve problems, shed light on inequality, invest in compassion, tell inspiring stories and more, in defiance of all that is bleak, bad, grim.
