envisioning the future


here we are, another new year on the horizon...i find myself working hard cleaning up the challenges of last year to create clearings for possibility to come and setting specific intentions and goals for my next revolution around the sun... here's a little of what i've been stirring in:

today, more than ever, humanity is facing the challenges of how to respond effectively to massive ecological problems…. problems that go deeper than physical ecology, that are bound in our social and spiritual existence as well. while we are hard at work contemplating how to save the world, i'm also dreaming about how the world to save would be…the world that i wish to live in every day…a place where we can meet our current societies needs without compromising a healthy future for the next generations…a place that values meaningful relationships of all types…a place where we we can celebrate the beauty and mystery of being alive every day…

if you were to create your ideal future, what would it look like? what values would your community hold? what are the conditions necessary for this community to exist in the way that you envision it?
