Thoughts on #earthday today…I am not a pessimist and I truly have so much hope for the future, especially when I see the every day brave heroes/activists all around us who are on the frontlines making this world a better place. But I’m REALLY finding it impossible these days to navigate existing in a world and society that would choose money, power and personal gain over the blatant suffering, pain and violence towards living beings, both people and non-human animals- all while the very land that sustains us is perishing. The selective activism/empathy is deeply disturbing and something I will never be able to wrap my head around. The worst part being -whether knowingly or unknowingly I am complicit in all of it by simply being alive and participating in a system that uses my tax dollars to decimate this planet and destroy life. To me, all of the beauty in this miracle that we call our home is increasingly becoming overshadowed by the ignorance, greed and total disconnect between humanity and the natural world. It breaks my heart every single day to witness the utter disregard for the lives of those we somehow feel are less important or valuable than ours.
When will we learn that violence is never the answer and only in the interest of our governments? When will we collectively become awakened to the horror behind our broken food system that is slowly killing all of us while corporations profit from it? What will it take for humanity to see the light and divinity that exists in every sentient being?
Dear Mother Earth, I am so sorry for what we do to you. How we treat all of your magnificent inhabitants that you nurture, support and love unconditionally. I will personally try my best to do better every day in every conscious choice I make, to use my voice and my art responsibly. I have so much to learn, and I know I must prioritize my connection to you over all else. Thank you for teaching us what truly matters- even if you have to send us giant wake up calls again and again to get the message across. Please hang in there while we learn to embrace our interconnectedness. I believe we will get there sooner than later, because we have no other option. 💚

This week I was proud to stand (in this stunning dress from @oscardelarenta ) with @american_heart and @goredforwomen at the #RedDressCollection Concert to raise awareness about the number one cause of death for women – cardiovascular disease. I myself live with an irregular heart beat, and South Asians account for the highest number of CVD cases in this country, so this cause is very close to my * ❤️ *
Today is National Wear Red Day! Post a photo of you in your favorite red outfit with #WearRedDay to help us raise awareness about cardiovascular disease. #heartmonth
