Impossible Dreams

The song from Man From La Mancha entitled "Impossible Dream" has always been inspiring to me. Now I take on an impossible dream for myself as I work to take neglected land that was one man's personal garbage dump that has no water, soil comprised of rocks glued together with dense clay, lots of shade and at least 26 trees that have the characteristics of not allowing plants to grow under them and in some cases they can kill plants close by, and turn this into an edible forest. The impetus of making something from nothing comes from an inner calling to be doing this even though the task is beyond reason. It's a form of sacred activism to make the world a better place for having spent some time here. Following inner callings is very important even though one may only see the next small step in front of them.
