Went to Standing Rock and joined the indigenous struggle against the Dakota Access Pipeline. It was a life-changing experience that will stay with me forever. At Oceti Sakowin camp, I saw what kind of world is possible and we must strive for. A world that is kinder to Mother Earth, fellow Earthlings, and sustainable. Not this. Not Capitalism.

Halfway through a long flight to the Middle East, I was at the back of the plane, stretching. A Sikh sage came there too and, out of the blue (ha!) asked me "Are you enjoying your life?" That simple question guided me to periodic reflection and contemplation. Because isn't that what it's really all about, and aren't we always distracted by just surviving capitalism?

I like to contemplate about the meaning of life and also how it feels for animals.
