Imagining

What if God isn't a noun to be empowered and worshiped
but a verb of creation powered by love?

What if every single tree drawn in primary school is a sacred work of art worthy of joyful notice?

What if our lives are built on a web of kindness, a net, which holds everything living. What if the rocks are alive singing strength and courage; vibrating from our feet right up to our heart?

What if we loved ourselves as deeply as the mountain who, caressed by water, surrenders herself into sand?

What if our most loved, intra-national pastime was a game of entertainment where we all win?

What if no one aspired to be a millionaire and money no longer had power
but was simply a means of tenderness.

What if transforming our world by imagining it can actually make it happen?
