Welcome 

This site is dedicated to all beings. 
​This dedication is intended as a naming of the love and hope that exist everywhere and that keep us going every day,
​expanding our world toward new horizons of positive possibility.  
Please come back regularly to see this site grow.
 Note:

​​The Learning Word did not grow as hoped in 2023 and 2024 due to weather and other happenings. 

However, we are happy to share that something new will be coming soon. 
Songs of Love ​
The voices of the world
are singing stories of truth
from the forging of lived experience
providing the un-nationed flags
of the present paths that merge, united,
with the future paths that are given space and held
by our singing, ​
by our telling of new stories
and all we can imagine 
as we walk 
together along paths here and there. 
What grows in the grey grasps growth's green grass grains! ​

The greatest lie of all is that people can't change.
​
Why do people believe they can't change? That we can't change? Are they just buying into a widespread social myth?

​​Instead of saying, 
​"It can't be done.", 
​​say, 
​"How can we do this?". 

​From the Community 

It’s not, “How can we do this?”
It’s, “How do we do this?
What is my first step to doing this?”
