1. THIS: (with deepest thanks for sharing this!!)

That is what Rose Army is all about, it’s about all of us being roses in our own life. Not me, the actual flower. We have thorns. And our thorns carry justice and our thorns carry consequence.

No more will we be shunted to the side. No more will we be hurt. It’s time to be whole. It’s time to rise. It’s time to be brave.

In the face of unspeakable actions from one monster we look away to another, the head monster of all right now. And they are the same. And they must die. It is time.

The paradigm must be subverted. It is time.
