Beneath the rubble lies the foundation from which to build anew. The house we’ve been living in has been a tenuous one—a paper house, a teetering house of cards. Our days of living in flimsy structures that offer little shelter are over. November lights the match that begins the fires of a great clearing. Sometimes the things to which we feel ourselves helplessly attached will be taken away on our behalf; consider this intervention to be a magnanimous grace. It’s time to let go. While momentarily difficult to accept and walk through, invest in the faith that what is being stripped away had ceased to support us long ago. Trust that everything unfolds in a manner that offers the opportunity of choice: your power lies in your ability to chose your response. Pause and accept the invitation to enact your highest wisdom. Trust that it is time to rid ourselves of the illusions to which we’ve been clinging. It’s time to open to new horizons of possibility. 

You are ready to meet this moment. We are ready to see clearly, with nothing left standing in our line of sight. Find your focus; cultivate your strength; feed your imagination. The world is ours for the rebuilding. Whether you are aware of it or not, this is the moment you’ve been preparing for. Brace yourself. Pause to find your grounding. Step up; step out. Now is the time to contribute.
