Dreaming is not as simple as it sounds....

Magpie Turnley came to life through lots of mornings with coffee...through lots of thoughts about the world we live in...and through lots of curiosity about what it would take to shift our trajectory. If we could create a new world with one dream, would we? And what would it be?

It all seemed so simple at first. And then it left me dumbfounded. And this is Magpie's journey.

My dream for the Earth would not be yours. What do we base those dreams on and how do we make it fair? Would we even stop to ask that question?

I have been incredibly fortunate to sit in spiritual circles and think about life. In one of those traditions, the origin story—one I use in Magpie’s story—is that we were all one. Two-leggeds were one with animal kingdoms and the stone beings and the plant kingdoms…we all communed in a world of love and respect and honor. Diverse—yes! but together. And then we left…

So what would you do? Would you return the world to the Original Kingdom design, or would you dream it your way? Either way, would we end up right back here where we are?

I wonder.

I probably need some more coffee.
