The Worlds we choose

A few days ago, we received another very generous pledge to this film.


What a wonderful crazy world. “We”. Who are We? A big world full of 7 Billion people.


What to do? What position should I take? Will they make it? All of us deal with 1000’s of decisions each day.


Today, “we” have 9 or 10 hours to do something.


There is no time to hesitate.


We are showing $12,870. Outside of our project we received two $5,000 pledges that are on the way through our partner American Bird Conservancy. I wished that those were able to come through the project as it would have inspired others earlier. But it is still so very much appreciated too.


Today, we can take action. I can’t go back to the Midwest Birding Symposium where hundreds of bird folks were gathered to pass out postcards. Everyone is now gone. Meanwhile---

I still have so many questions, some of which I will never get an answer for.


Why do we not fund things that are meant to be wholesome and wonderful? How can “we” fund Thankskilling Turkey? But superimpose for a moment that our Kickstarter campaign is at this moment over $50,000 short of the goal.


So our society chooses a false or a relief valve-reality instead of working to do something. It is work but it is also so very fulfilling to see things like prairies being restored.


What kind of world do you choose?
