Do you dream and do you wonder? What do you seek and what comes of your thoughts? The Greeks sought, according to Aeschylus, to ‘tame the savageness of man, and make quiet the life of the world.’ The Earth itself is a Being, radiating outwards a consciousness that, no matter the vineyard in which you toil, each of us can reconnect with, refresh and renew ourselves, and perhaps even remake the world around us. In an Age of Absurdity, the soul’s longing has an uncommon degree of strength in the beauty of expression. Your thoughts and words change the world.
