A favorite compass of a quote from David Abram, shared full circle by fellow forest dreamer @penahay.bsky.social, beautifully in @forestofimaginatn.bsky.social π²π±π¨πΌπ»π
βThe future will be sculpted β¦ by the elemental friendships & alliances that we choose to sustain us, by our full-bodied capacity for earthly compassion & dark wonder, by our ability to listen, attentive & at ease, within the forest of our unknowing.β
David Abram.
Thanks @bkuhnhaus.bsky.social π

This autumn we will reclaim Entry Hill in Bath for FOI 25! This marks a new chapter on our journey as we imagine what a permanent Forest of Imagination could look like
This is a proof of concept: imagining reclaiming this space, reborn. For nature, community, diversity, creativity, for the future π
