“I hope people learn to love one another a little more than they do, and if I can be any help in that respect, then I hope to be.”–Dolly Parton

I was so sad to hear about Dolly Parton’s passing yesterday. I’m not a big country music fan, but I had such respect for her, not only as a singer and songwriter, but as a philanthropist, a champion for children’s literacy, film and tv producer, a supporter of public health initiatives, and a voice for equality and respect for others. She was obviously very talented, but more importantly she cared about people and making the world a better place.

I hope we can all bring a little of Dolly’s spirit into our creativity work and in how we interact with each other.
