With an eco-mind, we get ready for surprises, for we realize it's just not possible to know what's possible.

If we cannot know what's possible, then we are free to do that which is pulling our hearts and that which is life serving.

Science is showing us that we are even more connected to each other than we ever realized.

We hear, "Oh, we need to patent GMOs and develop new strains and new chemicals because Nature can't provide what we need." I have to debate people all the time who say that Nature can't provide enough.

There is no formula. We all must become spirited inventors. There's no single answer - not even a single starting point. Even the 'teachers' ... don't offer us the answer. They do offer us approaches, ways of thinking, possibilities we can adapt, and hope that might generate in us wholly new ideas.
