Dear Friends,

​

          This Sunday we will be considering the Power of imagination and how we can utilize it to take better care of the planet, our home away from home. I write this to you outside, in my garden, and I am a little distracted in a pleasant way by the beauty. Little white butterflies flit about the tiger lilies, birds trill, two female robins just visited and tall pines, maple and mulberry trees encircle me.

​

What miraculous imagination flowed forth from Divine Mind to express all this gloriousness! We ourselves are created in the image and likeness of the Creator, the Great Spirit of All Life. All of our fellow animals, every creature, all wildlife too. With the gift of our big brains, we can make use of this imagination in infinite ways!.

​

You can see imagination all around you, as you take a walk through your neighbourhood and admire people’s creative gardens, the architecture of their homes, even so many of the cars that drive past you, are at least partly powered by battery. The examples of imagination at work in sync with nature countlessly abound.

​

UWM’s Earth Care curriculum ( https://www.unityuwm.org/ec-curriculum-imagination) says it this way:

​

“She (Earth) says: ‘Do you see the multitude of ways that I have compelled an abundance of life to emerge? Expand your view, dive deep into your creativity, and match my designs and creativity.’ We can do this! For example, our scientists can be inspired by Earth’s promptings and imagine ways for our society to best use wind, sunlight, forests, species, carbon cycles, ocean currents, and water cycles to energize our human world, as they do the natural world. 

​

Each of us can join in the creative process, do a diversity of simple things for the beneficial evolution of our planet. Each step not only advances us toward new vitality but also supports the beneficial evolution of our consciousness.

​

Claim yourself as an evolutionary pioneer, boldly moving forward to imagine new and more sustainable ways to express your work (and play)…wherever each of us is on our life’s journey, we have a contribution to make; it’s not just the job of perceived experts.  We ALL join in this harmonious evolutionary unfolding of all beings."

 

I claim myself an evolutionary pioneer! Will you join me?

 

I am on this learning curve, as are you. Let's continue to explore the gift of our imagination as, together, we continue to do our part creating a healthier planet and all who depend on her.

 

Hopefully,

Mariette
