There is a new story
arising in the world.
One of turning away
from a culture of
domination and death,
and the turning toward
a culture that is life
sustaining and life renewing.
All over the planet people
are now telling this story.
It's a story to be told
by our descendants,
looking back on
this present time.
Will we be the monsters
of our great grand
children's nightmares?
Or, will we walk
as the new story says,
as heroes and healers,
and the epic poetry of
those still unborn voices?
Or, will we be lovingly
remembered in the songs
of our descendants,
as they recount the story
of this lost and very
wounded tribe that
stepped back from the
abyss, and found
its way home to the
community of living souls?
We get to choose.
Who are we going to be?
