#ScribesAndMakers 6/9 Talk about the least read book from 6/8
Perseverance by Margaret J. Wheatley
I'm a little low on spoons today, so I'll give you a link to a good write up about the book ...
... and a quote from Margaret.
"... Throughout human existence, there have always been people willing to step forward to struggle valiantly in the hope that they might reverse the downward course of events. Some succeeded, some did not. As we face our own time, it’s good to remember that we’re only the most recent humans who have struggled to change things ... This is how the world always changes. Everyday people not waiting for someone else to fix things or come to their rescue, but simply stepping forward, working together, figuring out how to make things better. Now it’s our turn."
