Me too. The world's messed up. We all should be doing more to 'think about people' and the planet. Generations not yet born will be relying on what we leave behind.

We need to separate the artist from the art while they’re alive –history keeps proving the cost of waiting until it’s too late.

All the greats are 'going'. But not just the greats, those with humanity, integrity – a force for good, Diane Keaton.

A few days before her Jane Goodall. Never forgotten, society has big shoes to fill. RIP.

“I never understood the idea that you’re supposed to mellow as you get older. Slowing down isn’t something I relate to at all. — I’ve done all kinds of things I said I wouldn’t do and, of course, now I’m glad. Thrilled.”

R.I.P. Diane Keaton, what a legend. 🕊️💫
