"Future generations, if there is a livable world for them, will look back at the epochal transition we are making to a life-sustaining society. And they may well call this the time of the Great Turning. It is happening now." - Joanna Macy

NOW I UNDERSTAND THAT WHAT I WAS EXPERIENCING WAS A GLIMPSe INTO DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS OF THE GREAT TURNING. this is my attempt to DOCUMENt MY PERSPECTIVE OF WHERE I SEE THESE THREE DIMENSIONS OCCURRING now and, THROUGH DIALOGUE HERE AND IN PERSON IN THE WORK OF 'WILD GROUND', learn about what others are experiencing, too. |
