Even though I’m not privileged in the money world, I’m privileged in other ways: I had greater access to education, I can travel, etc. It’s the same with writing: the freedom to move in and out of different places, of different realms of existence, of different life forms Picture Quote #1

Economic growth without social progress lets the great majority of the people remain in poverty, while a privileged few reap the benefits of rising abundance Picture Quote #1
