I've been meaning to join in on the 'Engage the Weekend' weekend topics for ages, because this fellow Australian is a pretty good Hive-sort, and engaging with Hive folk is one of the things I love about this platform.
This weekend's topic is about if you could give a gift to a fellow Hiver, what would it be? And that's a super hard topic for a person who doesn't want to leave anyone out, and loves so many people here.
Do I send a book on trees? Do I organise a PA for
to help with his uni next year? What about a gift voucher to go out for dinner with the hubs for
?
But hey, let's get magical here for a minute. Let's pretend I have a lot of money. A lot. Enough to buy a small island or a few thousand hectares in Europe or Australia or hey, anywhere in the world. Let's imagine I had enough money that visas weren't an issue and governments would just bow to my super stardom and let me allow anyone I like to come join in the best and biggest Christmas gift I could imagine in this little head of mine.
Mine would have to be a rewilding commune, a beautiful big community where everyone would have a little bit of land, on the condition they love the Earth with me, and help plant trees and release animals into the wild to build a beautiful Lotus paradise on Earth. All my Lotus Tribe would be there - would have his house in the mountains just the right distance from people to feel his space but to be in company whenever he choose.
would have a beautiful earthship with lots of windows opening to the sky.
would have a state of the art kitchen for her vegan cooking where we'd take turns, of course, making amazing food (On Tuesdays,
would make Cambodian noodles, and on Thursdays, it'd be rasta Ital by
, who'd play endless reggae on vinyl decks painted red green and gold),
would have a dream holding with her chickens and vegetables and nothing would ever go wrong, and if it did, we'd stop by to help out.
would have an observatory ontop of a beautiful hill where the night sky would be his.
,
and other beautiful Hive musicians would have their stage. And to anyone I haven't mentioned personally, you know you are in this world too.
, you are welcome, so long as you don't shoot anything except targets. And you'd always, always be served cake with no serviettes underneath.
How we Hivers could build a real paradise on Earth - not an Altspace, but a real space, with real love built on real ideas and real hope. We'd rewild the landscape and rewild ourselves.
And I'm not talking any Osho Koresh type commune - us Hivers are used to decentralisation, and we uphold it as a holy thing. We want no Guru but the sky, the trees, the stars, the sea, and all the living things that breath upon it.
Yep, stark raving hippie Christmas dreams, y'all. Lotus Love ya all up!
But for now, my lovelies, I wish you all your dreams and hopes for 2021, and know I adore you all at Christmas, where you are never far from my heart.
With Love,
