Today’s quotation is in relation to the Inner Development Goal of
Long term orientation and visioning.
The IDG website has this to say about it:
“Long-term orientation and ability to formulate and sustain commitment to visions relating to the larger context.”
My responses are:
“In times when everything is fine hope is unnecessary. Hope is not happiness or confidence or inner peace; it’s a commitment to search for possibilities.” - Rebecca Solnit
and
“Inside the word "emergency" is "emerge"; from an emergency new things come forth. The old certainties are crumbling fast, but danger and possibility are sisters.” – Rebecca Solnit, Hope in the Dark
And you? What are your thoughts?
On 31 October I am running a free online creative conversation about the IDGs. More information and bookings here.
couldn't agree more!.. who are we to consume without regard to an ongoing reciprocity?
In a world full of disposable relationships (like coffee cups and fashion) investing in long-term slow moving culture (and rest and reflection) is an anti-patriarchal act. I'm living for it.
