The bench holds still,
No force, no will.

From Bronze Age Wales, the spectacular Mold Cape! 🤩

An incredible ancient feat of sheet-goldworking, beaten from a single gold ingot some 3,600 years ago!

The extraordinary embossed decoration is said to mimic strings of beads.

I'm reading "The Systems View of Life: A Unifying Vision" by Fritjof Capra and Pier Luigi Luisi. It's excellent and features #emergence in a big way 👌🏻

Here's Capra giving a talk ~10 years ago which summarising the author's vision and intentions:

I met some fab women in Wallsend recently who are smashing misconceptions about what a construction worker looks like 👷‍♀️

Bellway are bringing more women into house building and it's paying off.

As we build more homes than ever, talented women are shaping how and thriving in a male dominated sector!

My method on here. There are lots of scary, annoying, saddening things to read, but I try to only share the advice, hope, kindness, compassion and joy. There is so much more of that in the world, it’s just quiet and humble. It doesn’t shout to be seen, so we need to remind ourselves to notice it.
Spread hope not fear. When you see something shocking, think carefully about whether passing it on is helpful. When you see something uplifting, share it to inspire others too
