Be

Life shifts us into neutral sometimes. Our engines idle, and our eyes and hearts adjust to the slower RPMs. We hang suspended for a while–waiting. Though we don’t know it, often we are waiting for a new vision to emerge–and we must be quiet enough, calm enough to sense its approach.

Vision is the art of seeing things that are yet to appear. With vision comes a responsibility like none other–for once we have been given vision, we must seek to bring it into being. Waiting–as hard as it can be–helps prepare us for what is yet to come.

There is an ancient saying that a confused state is that state in which the idea has not yet begun to sing its song of identity.
