The Sound of Silence

Things change every few billion years

And then they change again

Deserts Bloom

Pure crystal rivers flow deep ………………underground connecting…..

…..with the rushing streams of the North, South, East and West …..

....and flow into the sea to connect again with all life.

Great cities grow and thrive on the bounty of water

Cape Town

But people abuse power: Money and industry and wars overtake our lives

Humans gobble up vast natural resources to stay on top

The crystal water deep down is poisoned by drilling for natural gas

Water supply starts running out

You dont know what you are supposed to do.

But suddenly, there it is silently waiting…….

The sound of silence

Space to hear the spaces between the sounds

Living water

This Ancient Love
