A Mini Series: 2. Being Young Today
Jen Chalupsky Hawai'i, USA Where do you connect to hope? I connect with hope in the infinite possibilities. Rather than being consumed by the overwhelm of stops or obstacles that exist in current structures and systems, I explore the possibility. It has far more potential. Recognizing that we have an impact in everything we do (or don’t do) is powerful and allows me to connect to hope. Knowing that I have a choice to intentionally explore that which resonates with my truth, fills me with hope. Discovering and fostering safe and stable spaces to expand, improve, transform and become the best version of myself – that is how I connect to hope. By sharing the work that expresses my life authentically; working with a community of farmers, gardeners, chefs, children and artists I connect to hope. In bringing together pieces that make up the experience of 1 + 1=3, I collaborate with the community to experience the mathematical enigma of overlapping intention. Here we can manifest whatever world we want to exist in; and in that infinite possibility of inspiring collaboration is where I find hope. |
