A walk to organise our way forward. Moreton on the Marsh, Gloucestershire
a long, slow climb out of the city
a stiff breeze blows away the cobwebs
what should we leave behind?
we choose to walk along the borders
development is a decision
what direction will we take?
we step into the natural world
improvement requires change
what are we open to?
here we feel ourselves relaxing,
with every breath we open and release
who will we choose to be?
we walk and the world turns with us
every step leaves a footprint
what impact will we have?
we are drawn to a sacred space
enduring monuments to a changing sky
what questions do we have?
take time to think and wonder
there are no certainties in development
what shall we explore?
“history is a pattern of timeless moments”
(T S Elliot)
what are our moments?
how will they guide us?
change is all around us
beauty is in imperfection
how can we encourage people to be ‘in development’?
up above the rooftops the skylarks sing
our hope is our humility
where can we be ourselves?
we look back on our journey
as the clouds gather over the land
what can we carry forward?
when the rainclouds gather in
it helps to be prepared
what resources can we draw on?
we drop back into the city
in the rain
what is our next step?
how can walking ‘in development’ help us live in a world that doesn’t share our values?

We come to connect. To make another start. Every day is a new beginning, it’s own starting point…
A walk in development is a walk in uncertainty, a journey into the unknown. Sometimes we’ll walk for hours, on hard and stony paths. Then suddenly there’s a moment, when we see the world as if for the first time and just as its always been. These are the moments we choose to guide us, to keep us on the path of development…
