The past several days have been great inspiration for me. In addition to other things, I had a rather profound inspirational experience that involved a snippet of text that is becoming key to my upcoming Earth Conscious Revolution:

I am born of the Earth
and through the power of the Earth
I am free.
My heart is filled with love
for myself, my community, and my world.
I share this power and this love
with you
so that we may live
in free cooperation
creating the world
of our dreams
together.

According to my reading of human nature, everyone’s deepest desire is just to be healthy, happy, safe, and free. Yet the world of today is a graveyard of broken lives and shattered dreams. And from what I can tell, it’s going to get worse before it gets better.

So, what can we do to create positive change?

People around me are tired… but they’re tired because they’re so active! Southern Illinois is blossoming into action… and I have a few blossoming projects of my own that will come to fruition this summer and fall.
