Thought for today:

“The individual can take initiatives without anyone’s permission.”
- Bucky Fuller

“I told myself:

“You do not have the right to eliminate yourself, you do not belong to you. Buckminster FullerYou belong to the universe. The significance of you will forever remain obscure to you, but you may assume that you are fulfilling your significance if you apply yourself to converting all your experience to the highest advantage of others.”

So I vowed to keep myself alive, but only if I would never use me again for just me - each one of us is born of two, and we really belong to each other. I vowed to do my own thinking instead of trying to accommodate everyone else’s opinions, credos and theories. I vowed to apply my inventory of experiences to the solving of problems that affect everyone aboard planet earth.”

- R. Buckminster Fuller
