The Dream for the Future
The idea is to create something wholesome that will remain for our kids and theirs.
What would it look like to have a refuge?
The idea of refuge is different for many. For some- it’s as simple as a safe place to sleep. Everyone seeks peace of mind, body and soul. I know that life is a journey- but should we need to travel to the ends of the Earth to find peace? I believe it isn’t exactly found; a place of refuge is made.
A safe community is a place where people can experience a stable listening environment. People don’t truly live until they can voice their ideas.
Where people can eat well, learn life skills, and thrive having everything they need.
Where Learning happens organically
Where families can grow
In the way that families do
And have moments
that matter
with resources that will allow them to dream and decide who they want to be
To support this, we’ll need a business that does real work
Serving people
in practical ways
Doing jobs that need doing by most everyone
That changes lives in tangible yet inexpressible ways
A way that helps navigate the pathways of the mind
Heals the body…
And nourishes the wordless things of the soul
So let’s get creative… even though it’s messy
And yes- dreams can be silly sometimes
But what’s life for if not to have fun and lift people up!
So let’s get to work cultivating the next phase of this dream
And take care of ourselves as an example
So that those who imitate us
will feel good
So let’s start with real professionals
And powerful tools to help us do our jobs.
I suggest we start with intelligent bodywork, Ionic foot baths, Float Tanks, Hyperbaric Oxygen tanks, Saunas, Brainspotting, Colonic irrigation, and corrective movement therapies.
We can add in Bemer, Prolo, PEMF, and other skin related therapies later.
We could host Self development, Speaking, Acting, Dancing, Filmography, and Music Lessons.
Next would be a greenhouse with an herb and mushroom garden, natural compost, and farming with an organic orchard. Mechanical work training, Metalworking, Carpentry, Plumbing, and Drafting and design would be natural choices as well.
