Yet still I recognize there is no possibility of changing another person’s life.  Until that person has embraced a desire for something new there will be no lasting change.  There are a lot of people all over the world resigned to the belief that ‘this is as good as it gets’; and for them their belief has ensured they have the best they can have.   At some point they must declare to themselves there must be something more to life than this experience they seem to be stuck in.  They must come to doubt the validity of their beliefs.

 My faith is that every limiting belief will at some point show its limitations, and in that moment of revelation a new idea can begin the process of transformation.  My desire is to be available in that moment.  I don’t have to travel to witness a world in transformation; I only need to show up where I am, as I am.  I only need to believe in the incredible power of the human spirit to rise above the human experience.  I only need to believe in people, in each individual’s ability to find and do well in their world.  As I do they do. 

I no longer feel the burning desire to find new places or to change the world; I have found much peace in changing myself and touching the people at hand.  In this way I may actually be participating in global change.
