Life and Death Matters

The presumably creative opposite of lose/lose dying
is win/win regenerative living,

The opposite of leftbrain dominant boredom
is left/right win/win co-passionate
cooperative entertainment,
intertwinement,
interdependent re-creation,
proactive dialogue,
cooperative discernment
and choice-making.

The opposite of loneliness
is compassionate engagement,
restoring Earth green peace 
and ecologically balancing justice.

So, the opposite of dying
feels like entertaining engagement,
cooperative co-investment,
multiculturally co-arising community interdependence,
copassioning communication,
active win/win therapeutic justice
seeking re-creation resilience stories
cooperatively win/win eco-politically committed
rather than disempowering
ego-patriarchal historians
writing leftbrain dominant
colonizing
competitively capitalistic
predator/prey evolutionary
eat or be eaten theories

That do not speak to
or from
actual planting
through harvesting
through composting
through winter's cold watered healing
through springtime replanting
regenerative
restoratively co-invested experience,
reconnecting ecological systemic relationships
to eco-political networks of and for
public and climate health,
community political and socially resilient 
ego-capital/eco-community 
sensory-neurological 
cognitive need/inductively felt
win/win communication 
compassionate wealth.
