World Weaving

. . . is a creative process, one we practice every day. It's true! Every thought, every action, every decision we make creates the world we live in. Our responses to everyday stimuli shape our highest achievements and our lowest sorrows. Once we recognize that "today" is the only period that counts, it is much easier to see the wonder and the possibilities that come into our sphere of experience. Once we agree that yesterday is over and can never be changed and once we accept that tomorrow is nothing more than a speculative dream that may never occur, then--and only then--are we free from old thoughts, ideas, and emotions; then are we free to explore the wondrous possibilities of world weaving. Our world, our weaving.

"For one magnificent day, you can live with an abundance of love and goodness and grace shining inside of you." - Douglas Pagels
