In this moment, there is a lull in the storm of potential. And given the density and intensity of what is occurring in the world, it will take a storm of potential to make a difference.
Long gone is the moment for incremental change. It’s time has come and gone, leaving us wondering: how do we redirect a force that has now begun to shape itself?
What makes any organic system interesting is the fact that it is not predictable. Its probabilities can be estimated but the specifics of its outcomes cannot. And maybe that’s the good news. In the intelligent, living organic systems that I am/you are/the world is, what appears probable need not necessarily be so.
This is the domain of magic. What appears probable – or even impossible! – need not necessarily be so. In order for magic to occur, we must first consider that we are magical, or at least capable of magic as an outcome. Without our willingness to consider that (as a probability), we are left with logic and reason. And we already know that’s what got us all here in the first place.
Breathing is good…
The following thought comes from Amy McNaughton. You can find her website at:

“When I read your blog it takes me back to a movie that I watched not that long ago. One character said, “The fate of the future is not set, the fate of the future lies within your hands.”
May be we’ve been looking for huge miracles when the simple changes that we make produce something that is positive for the higher good of all man kind. It’s the subtle changes we make that create a wave that goes out and touches people and then comes back in again and keeps the movement and changes occurring. If we were all to make but a subtle change, each and every one of us, magic would truly occur throughout the world with little effort.
