| Wake up early Get out of your way Don’t lock your doors Share what you have Don’t try to put the world back to the way it was Ask for help Complain less, love more Stay steady Trade, don’t steal Do what is obvious Take zoo animals back to their homes Tear down tall buildings Don’t be rich Don’t follow orders Make music without electricity Play without keeping score Get your hands dirty Work next to children Protect libraries Live lean Don’t worry about dying Pretend the air is God Feed the ground Pray into moving water Build temples in forests In the evenings tell good stories Give America back to the Indians Pay reparations, never enough Don’t make gunpowder Don’t be smug Love anyone you want Make things beautiful this time Add to this list ~ Pir Elias Amidon |
