The Vision
I believe we do not have to live in darkness.
We can find a better way. We can live lives that are not so isolated, where we feel some harmony with the world, some purpose in life. We can love each other, get rid of the bitterness, the anger, the judgment, the fear. We can have relationships that work, that fulfill our longing to live deeply with another human being.
It is not easy. We are complex. We carry years of baggage that is hard to let go.
But it can be done.
The answers are not new. Wise men keep rediscovering them through tremendous labor. But too many of us spend our lives seeking in the wrong places.
If we join together, we can share what we have learned.
If we join together, we can tell others what has worked for us.
If we join together, we will not be so alone in our struggle.
Picture people who learn how to love each other in ways that are healthy for all.
Picture people who can support each other when life is tough.
Picture people who can help each other overcome fears.
Can it be done? Can people really learn how to live together? Can we really build a new society where we learn how to live in ways that let us be our best?
I don't know.
But that's not going to stop me.
I do know it can be better than what it is today.
I've seen it.
I've seen it happen.
I've seen people learn to love, learn to be free, learn to live from their heart.
It can be done.
Come and build that better world we all dream about. Come and put our minds and hearts together.
No one has all the answers. But together, we have more answers than apart.
It won't be easy. It will take a lot of humility, a lot of patience, a lot of trust and willingness to risk.
But what else is really worth your time?
