Centuries from now, and we can only pray now that clocks will continue to tick forward and we have not circled back to the insanity of today, I hope that future generations will be toasting peace while there are murmurs of gratitude for fields of grain that feed the hungry.
When long-unused ashtrays wait to be recycled into frames for glasses and the shadow of cancer is unseen in the sunshine of healthy faces. When the sound of thunder does not portend disaster around the corner, but the exultation of near-extinct animals across the land, savouring the simple thrill of being alive.
A wonderful dream well described. Thank you!
