Many are saying that the environment has changed for our programs and that may well be true. Some say the answer is to spend, release cash into the economy. My feeling is that we must continue to create, create with all of ourselves, with our very self. To know that we are both creative and productive as humans even when we journey in and down at the beginning of the creative process. I find that it is mostly when I am alone that my fear rises towards panic. When we are not alone it is amazing what the human spirit can come though. The heart completes the pattern - let us begin here. After two years of working as a team we are set to deliver our new program.

The past week has been particularly unnerving. It's so easy to become mesmerized and seduced by the prognosticators of doom and gloom. I've been cycling between anger, disgust and feelings of helplessness. Thank you for the timely reminder that when I'm feeling off balance in this way I need to pause, and let things settle and fall away. Then, and only then can I engage with others in real conversations from a place of openness, courage and authenticity. Thanks so much for this Susan.
