DRAGON

THIS IS A CALL FOR LOVE

IN THE WORLD,

AND IF YOU'RE READY TO LISTEN,

I'M GOING TO TELL YOU A STORY.

  
IT HAS TAKEN A LONG TIME TO GET TO THIS PLACE.

YEARS OF THINKING AND THINKING AND THINKING

TO ARRIVE AT A PLAN 

THAT COULD ACTUALLY WORK.

  

BUT A PLAN THIS BIG

IS FAR BIGGER THAN ME.

IN FACT, IT IS ALMOST OUT OF MY HANDS,

AND OUT OF MY CONTROL.

  

THIS IS BECAUSE IT IS NOT JUST MY PLAN ANYMORE.

IT IS EVERYONE'S PLAN,

BECAUSE IT INCLUDES EVERYONE,

AND EVERYTHING!

  

NOBODY WANTS THE WORLD TO END,

AND YET EVERYONE DREAMS OF A BETTER WORLD.

IF YOU WANT SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL AND NEW,

YOU MUST RELEASE WHAT IS UGLY AND OLD.

WHAT SEEMS TO BE WRONG IN THE WORLD

– OBSERVED IN EVERYDAY LIFE, AND ON TV –

BETWEEN MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS,

IS THAT THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO COMMUNICATE.

THEY'VE FORGOTTEN WHO THEY ARE,

AND THEY'VE REMEMBERED NOT TO LAUGH,

AND NOW, AT LONG LAST, THE TIME HAS COME

FOR ME!

AND I SHALL REMIND THEM AND YOU

THROUGH TELLING A STORY.

A STORY ABOUT A SEED WHICH WAS PLANTED,

AND HOW WE ARE WATCHING IT GROW.
