- How Do My Actions Impact The Planet?
By: Caitriona Reed | - How do we remember the generations not yet born?

Of course, once you discover the secret, it's no longer a secret to you. But it could still be a secret to others.

There are as many instants of now in a minute as there are in an hour. The now is infinite no matter how long you linger there.
