I took this pic last night at one of my favorite restaurants in Acapulco. Marcelino's has great pizza and pasta. But it's their outdoor garden and soulful music that keeps me coming back.
A garden is a planned space, set aside for the display, cultivation and enjoyment of plants, and other forms of nature. This Dream Garden is an intended space, set aside for the display, cultivation and enjoyment of dreams. The inspiration behind the DreamGarden includes the desire for:
(1) a more meaningful exchange on social media;
(2) a more clear and visceral connection to our own dreams; and
(3) a LESS PRIVATE handling of those dreams.
I've been working with a group of visionaries, activists, investors and expats. We regularly discuss the goals and progress of a very special project that will positively impact the world, and everyone working on it. From the first moment I got involved a few months ago, I noticed a few key things that have been happening consistently:
We are CLEAR about the things we want to see accomplished (vision), how we want to see them accomplished (ethics), and who/what is needed to make it real (resources).
We are IN AGREEMENT about the vision, ethics and resources that make up our shared dream.
We are THANKFULLY AWARE when Life aligns the people and things needed to turn a beautiful idea, into an actual happening.
The alignment happens often. And quickly.
And we can re-create and practice that successful dynamic right here.
(1) Start with a DREAM.
(2) Match it with a piece of media -- a picture, video, song, or passage of text.
(3) In the comments of your post, add a description of why/how this media depicts your dream.
(4) When, in the coming days/weeks/months, you come across GREATER DETAIL... or ADDITIONAL MEDIA... that nourishes your dream, make it an additional comment (thereby refreshing it, and bumping it again to the top of everyone's minds.)
(5) And as a most-important-witness-of-others... when YOU behold a detail or media piece that could nourish the dream of someone else in this group, please add it as a comment to their soil-post.
