A New Challenging Year

Another year gone by the wayside, very little of anything positive to write about in 2011, but in 2012 the blog is my creative outlet focus. So have any of you noticed the small incremental changes going on around us, much like the frog in the slowly heating pot, I doubt it! But fear not, I will endeavour to find the time to share my own thoughts along with respected others this coming year.

The focus remains on the changes that need to be made during an energy descent, with the sincere hope that the changes are slow enough so as we can cope with the transition in as painless a way as possible. This is not a pet project or a whim but increasingly my responsibility to myself, my precious daughter, my extended family and my friends.

"In a time when the survival of the human race is in question, to continue with the status quo is to cooperate with insanity, to contribute to chaos. When darkness engulfs the spirit of the people, it is urgent for concerned people to awaken, to rise to revolution. The cleverness of the human mind has led us to the complex, horrifying, and all-encompassing crisis that we now face. The familiar solutions, based on a limited view of what a human being is, continue to fail, to be pathetically inadequate. Yet we pour vast resources into these tired solutions and feel that if we achieve a grand enough scale, the old solutions will meet the new challenges. Do we have the courage to see failures as failures and leave them to the past? Do we have the vitality to go beyond narrow, one-sided views of human life and to open ourselves to totality and wholeness? The call of the hour is to move beyond the fragmentary, to awaken to total revolution." - Vimala Thakar
