No one can argue with you, as you are the authority on your perspective and feelings. Take a good look from a distance. Most people, once they have stepped back to take a look at what doesn't work, will automatically make the choice to create a better way. This is a high co-creative activity that springs forth from the depths of our being with desire and feeling, not just visualization which is all too often solitary and overly mental. I say let's create a culture of sharing our dreams and visions.
Small groups can be a potent antidote to denial.
Church growth consultants today are advising of the importance of small groups, especially closed groups, for a sense of connectedness with people of like mind, intimacy, inspiration, and personal growth. In or out of a church, small groups provide a framework for an accelerated pace, intense personal experience, mutual support, and spiritual sharing and communion. Groups also provide an instant social context for integrating personal breakthrough and identity shift into one's life, and a reality check on interpersonal dynamics. Groups need to be moderated by an experienced leader, and there need to be agreements regarding confidentiality and refusal to speak negatively about outsiders except in a therapeutic context regarding problems, etc. Such party groups would quickly become closed and would be ongoing weekly for perhaps years at a time, something like Dungeons and Dragons groups, only with a different sort of purpose.
