We are deeply pleased for the opportunity to introduce Literature of Restoration and to introduce you to it. As literature emerges from culture which in turn is shaped by literature, we are hoping that over time a new literature will emerge, not wedded to death and violence but from which we might say, Long Life for the future of all beings, (all beings!) the natural world and the Earth.

Though we will speak of Literature of Restoration, or LoR, here as we have come to know it, you will ultimately discover its essence and forms by reading the pieces that will reside here. We think of this site as a community gathering in conversation around a central fire in the woods with clear examples of LoR being posted and added to irregularly. We hope you will return to the site again and again in order to be inspired and nourished. You may as you enter into this way of seeing and knowing want to engage with the subject, wrestle with the ideas and the possibilities.  Some of such correspondence will appear on MindWalk. Frankly, we expect this site to be dynamic, responding to the energies, the elements, what is needed at any time.
