As is true of all of my writing, it is inspired by the work of others, those who help me frame the journey through this wilderness.
Today I write from the floor which many of us share here, a shared bond of compassion and human insight - which after all, is what the floor is composed of.
The writer above, - whose excellent commentary is featured as an inspiration for this post, is exemplified at the borderlines, where quantum science and philosophy meet the experiential work of the shaman.
The rich borderlines, where presently the human species encounters simultaneously the diversity, the richness and the friction - all necessary for this evolutionary journey to take place.
A deep time evolutionary history, founded upon the quality of mercy, the resonance of love, the healing nature of compassion.
For it is human meaning which will serve as the bridge between the evolutionary forces which converge now to become the future which even now rises all around us.
For this bridge which we build first within ourselves, and then offer to the world through our relationships, and through our words and deeds, is what becomes ourselves.
We now know through science itself - neuroplasticity - that we become physically, emotionally, & spiritually - what we do - and what we think.
From * Thich Nhat Hanh, *a great modern Socratic guide, comes words of wisdom.
May we become the bridge and serve as the map, that which serves to shore up the foundations as we walk the new territory.
My deepest thanks to all those who walk this newest territory we humans are being asked to cross.
