"Remember your future"-- Me
In tree planting, as in everyday, our actions determine our outcome. When we distill this down we are the sum of all our actions. In tree planting, intention and outcome come together. We see this at the end of each piece, each day, each season and each year it echos through our lives. In the act of planting trees we are fully in the moment and at the same time creating and preparing ourselves for the future. Imagining and dreaming as we move from tree to tree or challenge to challenge. Being absolutely entangled in the moment all the time working for something bigger.
Our actions in each day changes our future. When we plant trees we are creating the foundation for what we want to do next in our lives. It is a profound process of growth and change. It is an intense initiation into our full potential.
Planting is about reforestation, afforestation, it is about fibre and carbon. It is about giving back.
Planting is about individually and collectively waking up to our potential. Tree planting is more then planting trees. It is more then a summer job. It is about building up the structure for what you imagine next in your life. It is paradoxically as much about repetition as it it is about the new and change. Planting trees is about imagination and creation. It is about initiation and the future. What we do here changes us and changes the environment around us. What we do here will affect us through our whole lives. It will affect generations to come. It is a process of initiation and creation.
Expectations:
I expect that we respect each other, communicate truthfully and succeed together.
Goals:
Give back, live in gratitude.
