Life begins
In the womb.
Life begins
In space.
Life begins
In love.
Life begins
In faith. And doubt.
Life begins
In company.
Life begins
When it ends.
Life begins
Life has to
Life Begins is a title we’ve given to Greenbelt in 2013 because we’re celebrating our fortieth festival. Some people say ‘Life Begins at 40’… and it might. As long as it also begins at 4 and and at 104.
On the number 40 bus and after 40 winks.
During 40 years in the wilderness, or 40 days of rain or 40 days of fasting.
Life begins every time we wake up. To a new idea. An old friend. A lost memory. A painting we’d never seen, some music we’d never heard.
Life begins when we change our mind, strike out in a new direction.
Life begins in the imagination.
With another way of seeing our world.
Life Begins is a title we’ve given to Greenbelt in 2013.
It’s open to interpretation.
That’s how life begins.
