"The problem is that **it’s so easy to stay in our bubbles. To not see what we don’t want to see**. We don’t do the math— on what it would be like to live on such a wage, on where all these raw materials are coming from, on where our money is going. We ignore the smell . . . or let people cover it up for us. (**There’s a joke that the Royal Family thinks the world smells like fresh paint**.)" --- **Tags** -- [[quotes]], [[mindfulness]], [[personal-values]], [[self-reflection]], [[teaching-anecdotes]], [[sustainability]], **Source** -- [[202409180127 - B - Right Thing, Right Now]]
