Sorry, Lee... didn't mean to kick... but I will admit that the Frustration paragraph brought up unpleasant memories... of jobs I've hated, co-workers I tolerated for too long and guilt for not figuring out a solution to my predicament. ...then I think about little Conan pushing that wheel for years and years, until he turned into Arnold Schwarzenegger... and I think... it could be worse.<br />

This was while driving to work? ...another good reason to take the train... all the noisy people, talking about redundant crap, makes it impossible to get that deep. And thanks for reminding me why I don't want a job or a car... etc...<br />

Vision is only limited by what you can see... You have the ability to see a broad swathe of the big picture and its interconnecting complexities... you can see its shortcomings, and you feel overwhemed by their numbers and size... do you see its miracles? do you…

this reminds me of a story in The Power of Awareness by Neville. a woman drives in to work every morning rehearsing the fight she knows she'll have with her boss. one morning she starts rehearsing the wonderful way she'll feel when her boss stops fighting with her and instead they work together beautifully and creatively. FEEL the difference you want to make.<br />
thank you for wanting our world to be different.<br />
love, erin
