what we dream

of the present moment
what we dream
Perhaps on occasion we participate in the original dream
of the earth.
...
The dream of the earth. Where else can we go for the
guidance needed for the task that is before us.
-Wendell Berry The Dream of the Earth.


It is easy, these days, to think that we are powerless.

What we dream of shapes our actions and our world.

Doug Ford has been dreaming of a new waterfront since he was a city councillor.

Doug's dream is taking shape where I played with my children.

My grandchildren may be able to go to Doug's spa.

What dreams to dream?


Ontario is on course to build highways over farmland and the GTAA Greenbelt, eliminate existing bike lanes, boost gas fired electricity production and send citizens pre-election cheques.
Housing, poverty reduction and health care are ongoing challenges. They do not appear to be priorities.
If the above strikes as polemic, please let me know. I welcome disagreement. It's just that "later is too late".


I am always interested in your thoughts.
