THE ONLY BORING PEOPLE I KNOW ARE BORED PEOPLE."

Dear Ones –

A friend of this page sent me this clip from Marie Clare Magazine…something I said in an interview recently.

I'm so over boredom, you guys. I can't bear it when people tell me that they're bored. In this world? In this universe? We have oceans, skies, exploding super novas, underwater volcanos, amazing ant colonies, caterpillars that turn into butterflies, giant trees growing everywhere you look, miniature bacterial colonies on every surface, a complicated computer between our ears, terrifying viruses, wars, history, arts, literature, music, the entirety of world information (thousands of libraries!) on your telephone, falling stars, love and loss, the many gods of many religions, the mystery of life and death, and A SUNRISE AND A SUNSET EVERY SINGLE DAY FOR FREE…and you're bored?

Not an interesting enough world for you?

What more on earth do you WANT?

For more of my thoughts on boredom, which I do believe is the first sign of a spiritual crisis, click here:

Un-numb yourselves, Dear Ones!

Hey New Jersey!

Hi to all my fellow Jersey Girls (and Jersey boys).

Just a quick note to encourage you to VOTE YES on Ballot Measure #2 tomorrow, to support funding for open spaces and land conservation in the Garden State!

We New Jerseyans take a lot of flak from the rest of the world, who think our state is all Turnpike and toxic waste dumps. But we know better. I live here for a reason – it’s pretty freaking, awesomely beautiful. I cannot imagine life without the mighty Delaware River flowing by my doorstep. And I know that gorgeous parks and clean rivers and wonderful wildlife management areas, trails and public beaches don’t just magically appear. They exist because we support them.

And right now, the state’s out of money for this.

This ballot measure is an opportunity for all of us to say “heck, yeah, please take 4% of the EXISTING corporate business tax – the tax that corporations already pay – and direct it to open space, farmland and historic preservation”. Our taxes don’t go up a bit

So let's join the over 180 environmental, farmland, recreational, hunting/fishing, outdoorsy organizations who support this measure!

Don't forget to vote!

ONWARD,
LG

Somewhere between when I left my home tonight, and when I arrived in my hotel room in Pittsburgh, you beautiful souls made me pass 300,000 likes on my Facebook page!

What a sweet treat to see.

I am grateful! So I made you a little photo of gratitude, before I lay my head down to rest tonight. (I kind of messed up on the N. I still have the handwriting of a maniac child. But the thaNks are sincere, nonetheless.)

Thank you for the friendship, kinship, sisterhood, brotherhood, goodness, and graciousness.

You are all absolutely stupendous, I do deeply believe so.

ONWARD!
