The Second Coming
*
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction; the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
*
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand;
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in the sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
*
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches toward Bethlehem to be born?
- W.B.Yeats

So long as we have failed to eliminate any of the causes of human despair, we do not have the right to try to eliminate those means by which man tries to cleanse himself of despair."

Change is inevitable, but the direction it takes is not.
It is not necessary to empower the force of change,
but only to steer it.

'Impossible' things are happening
on a global scale,
at an increasing rate.

 Those unprepared
to face up to the 'Impossible'
are likewise unprepared
to face up to the future.

"Permaculture philosophy is one of working with, rather than against nature; of protracted and thoughtful observation, rather than protracted and thoughtless action; of looking at systems in all their functions rather than asking only one yield of them; of allowing systems to demonstrate their own evolution."

     Everything in the known universe can be
 described mathematically as a wave function of
  a set of characteristics existing in a finite
   area of space-time. And everything changes
 according to the laws of probability, another wave function.
Since
everything is a wave function, everything
   has a frequency, timbre, and amplitude.
All
     the wave forms change each other, become
  chords, resonate, harmonize, and occasionally crash into discord.
  Everything, then, is music.
Each of us is an
  instrument in an orchestra, making the sound
 we make when
struck, rubbed, stroked, or blown through.
Each of us is also a player, trying
  to harmonize with the other players.
Each of us is a songwriter, dreaming new themes and
   trying to steer the melody toward them.
And
   each of us is a song, our song which is our
life, with secret themes, counter rhythms, and inner harmonies of its own.
M. Komoroski,
explaining the expression
"Lord, Make me a piece of your Instrument."
