On my last day here in Denver, I start the day by sharing the following "thought" from "TUT.com".
"Throughout the hallowed ages, those in the unseen have always marveled at the accomplishments and creations of humankind. Whether a sandcastle or a skyscraper; a painting or a poem; they're humbled by your ability to reflect, to engineer, to craft, and to create something that has never before existed within time and space.
But it's not the creation that impresses; these all exist here to the nth degree. It's the persistence and determination of the seemingly mortal dreamer who steadfastly holds a new thought in mind, either of the creation or of its inevitable success, and moves with it, even while the rest of the world is content dreaming their father's dreams.
This is what is admired; not just because it's so rare, but because it is so, even when such innovative potential lies within all.
Cool, huh?
The Universe"
The last paragraph of today's thought is reminiscent of a well known Ralph Waldo Emerson quote ... "What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us." All to often our intrinsic potential remains what could be instead of what is.
