1000 Flowers for the Planet - #308 Keep Calm and Carry On

1000 Flowers for the Planet - #308 Keep Calm and Carry On


I love this slogan and wanted to include it in my 1000 Flowers for the Planet project as an inspirational idea for all to enjoy. The slogan was invented by the British government in 1939 as a propaganda poster to inspire their nation during the impending war (World War II), but was never actually distributed. Eventually the poster was ‘discovered’ in the year 2000 and has since been an inspiration in modern times. With so much happening around the world (yet again), the idea of keeping calm and carrying on is an excellent one and I hope it inspires you when things seem tough. There’s a lot to be changed in this world of ours, from avoiding wars, to environmental issues, to learning tolerance, so as we aim for all of this and more, let’s -
Keep Calm and Carry On
