random beauty: that vision thing

“Without strategic vision, our decisions become more haphazard and we can lose belief in what we’re doing with our life’s energies. Buffeted as we are every day by life’s tragi-comedy horror show, like those butterflies being blown into bushes and buildings, it can be hard not to give in to frustration and despair. Strategic vision points us upward toward those clean migratory windstreams blowing at 12,000 feet. When you know that’s what you’re working toward, it’s easier to take the buffeting along the way.” Kai/Zuky

“The plain fact is that the planet does not need more successful people. But, it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers and lovers of every kind. It needs people who live well in their places. It needs people of moral courage willing to join the fight to make the world habitable and humane. And, these qualities have little to do with success as our culture has defined it”. David Orr,
