I understand my role to be in the world as a witness–to see, hear, understand, know, what’s what, what’s happening, what is called for, and what is to be done about it, here, now, and to do it, when, where and how it needs to be done, in each situation as it arises, all my life long, with the gifts I have to work with from birth: My Original Nature, My Innate Virtues (The Things I Do Best And Enjoy Doing Most), My Intrinsic Intuition, and My Inherent Imagination, for the sheer joy of doing it, and the satisfaction of having done it.
I understand that to be your role as well. And when we join one another in doing the work that is ours to do as only we can do it, the world becomes a better place to be. Situation by situation. Day by day. Are you with me in this work that is ours to do?
