Kristie on Nostr: We see big things and ignore the small. Ordinary, easy things, done over and over. ...
We see big things and ignore the small. Ordinary, easy things, done over and over. Scrolling, buying, clicking, sharing. Looking outward rather than inward. ‘Our hands are tied,’ we say, while tying the knots.
Hundreds of small, daily, convenient knots, until the world becomes a prison & we talk of nothing but being free.
This is the part people dislike, because it sounds like blame. And it is, a little.
It is easier to say the world is too hungry than to admit that we are still feeding it.
