Creativity is intelligence having fun.
Albert Einstein
The natural world of plants, minerals, and even water can be consigned to categories of commodity and capital; but it doesn’t diminish their sacred nature. The term ‘woke’ can be thrown at me with derogatory intent; but it only strengthens my resolve to be awake to and inhabit compassionate consciousness. I don’t give a toss what others think. Please. Call me woke. I embrace it fully.
The landscape rooted in love is where we woke folk will do our work. This is where our intelligence and wisdom will shine, where our creative juices will flow freely. This is where we will inspire and support each other. This is where we will weave new structures and systems of community support and strengthen the weave of those that already exist. This is where we will dream and manifest visions of a sustainable world. This is where we will sing songs of the Earth. This is where we will dance.
Yes. I fully understand this is going to be a time of trauma and tragedy for so many of our people and devastation for the earth. But we will dig deep to leverage our intelligence and creativity for the joy of hope and possibility. And I find joy is always fun.
Let’s dance!!!

Let it be so!!!
Well done, my woke peer. Awake to awareness is what we need to be. And I’m afraid you’re right to note there will be (and is) trauma and tragedy. Hopefully, the Earth and us upon it can both bounce and grow.
Well said! Love how this feels like a description of the liminal space where bridges are woven. Here’s to the Woke everywhere.
My sentiments exactly; i consider “woke” to be a compliment.
