BE THE CHANGE YOU WISH TO SEE

You are part of the House of Heart-Minded People if you are reading this. I came up with this concept a while ago while reflecting on my time with Late Sunday Afternoon. It is one thing to create something in the world, but it is another to create something that people engage with, allowing the artist to participate in that interaction. Over the years, all of you have brought so much meaning and love into my world and helped me bring it back into the world.

Today, with news everywhere and all the time, we need to be more active in our love and mentorship of the world. It is no longer enough to have money or power to protect your family and interests. In this new world, you must be the change you wish to see.

We are all present in our lives. We all have compassion and empathy for others most of the time, right? We all see and feel the world changing around us. Ask your heart: What is my legacy? How will I be remembered? Did I do everything I could to leave a soulful impact with my time here?

You have chosen to join this group of Heart-Minded People! Now, keep leading by example: shop small and local, help when help is needed, give when no one is asking, say you're sorry, and push yourself out of the box you grew into as an adult. Remember, as babies or toddlers, we do not have this conditioning. It is only after the world pounds it into us that we become a result of it. But with enough courage, you too can shed that conditioning and take your heart-mind to go take risks in this big, beautiful world.

Warm regards,

Matthew Schildkret
