Demystify vision and ground it. Vision may be as powerful as love, but it is just as ordinary. All of us can enjoy vision's natural power to generate the very resources and energy we need to overcome gaps between current reality and a realized vision. Without grounding, vision can quickly turn into time-wasting daydream or destructive illusion. With grounding, we can unleash safely the power of vision in a way that's naturally ecological, naturally moral, naturally compassionate.
Vision can become conscious suddenly and dramatically, or it can unfold slowly.
However it appears, it's important to remember that having a vision won't make us special or replace the need for hard work. Following a vision, like the rest of life, can sometimes be frustrating or exhausting. But it's always enlivening to letyour mind soar with possibilities while you keep your feet on the ground. Get out in the world and let it teach you. When we were young enough to talk to the stars and wonder what God eats for breakfast, we discovered wise teachers everywhere.
