"Reader, have you ever been part of something...where everything seems to flow, where you find yourself again and again at the right place at the right time to encounter exactly the right person? Where everything needed shows up, sometimes at the last minute, in completely unanticipated ways? Where an invisible outside power seems to be coordinating everything and everyone?"

-Charles Eisenstein The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know is Possible


Once in a lifetime all the stars seem to be in alignment...
Everything about this project has fallen into place in the most unimaginable ways. All because of a collaborative, coincidental and cooperative interchange between so many, many people. Both of us would like to thank everyone that helped us make the The Flowers Are Burning the most wholehearted and humbling endeavor we have experienced. We are deeply grateful to you all.
