The Endless Thrill of the Possible

"The spiritual energy that runs through my veins has always been calling me to a new expression of enlightenment - one that is free from the timeworn shackles of the great mythic traditions, shackles that inevitably get revealed as they clash with the values of modernity and postmodernity. It is an enlightenment that by its very nature can never be content with the way things were in the past, no matter how glorious that past may have been. It is an enlightenment that can also never be content with how things are in the present moment, even at those rare instances when everything seems like it couldn't be more perfect. It is an enlightenment that is defined by a ceaseless and ecstatic reaching forth towards an as-yet-unborn and unmanifest potential - a constant stretching towards a future perfection that will always lie just beyond one's fingertips. My inner eye and heart is captivated by the freedom of that mysterious place between the immediacy of the present moment and the endless thrill of the possible."
