[Springboard] My pre-weekend take on the significant mission of Springboard

[John Cock]

Thanks, Jim, for the question. The significant "specific mission" of
Springboard that I see emerging:
 
Specific mission statement: sustaining the "greatest movement on earth"
(picking up on Hawken's phrase) . . . and within that mission some specific
strategies: creating a new order to help sustain focus movements of the
"greatest movement," including ICA/EI globally, through consultation with
and the broadcast of profound events, methods, and publications.
 
BTW, I would like to read son John's words to your sons.
 
See you very soon,
 
John

John, what is the significant mission you are seeing emerge?
 
I was struck, at the get together in Abbey North, someone dug out the
prolegomena to the rule of the order which was apparently written as an
example of the kind of covenant a cadre or  . . . would write.  I won't go
into the language, etc. but I was struck with the emphasis on "this specific
mission" as an important part of what needed articulation.
 
Great words, by the way, from John to my sons on their 30th a couple of
weeks ago.

What is the "order dynamic"?   Who says that "younger" folks are not doing a
significant mission in history?  What more [my underline and blue type] do
you/we want?
 
Here is part of the paragraph Cynthia is referring to (sorry it was
unclear):
 
2) How do we get more "younger" folks committed to the order dynamic, yea,
the Springboard, for a longer trajectory than most of us have left? . . .
How do we line up fifty new ones [younger folks]? 
 
I also mentioned six examples of "younger folks," including my two sons.
They are doing significant missions. I talked to my older son since I wrote
that paragraph and he said he'd be quite interested to do so, but next time
give him more than four days to plan to be there. What I'm talking about is
their ilk joining with us in the Springboard "order dynamic," which I think
is a significant mission that is going somewhere. I want some younger folks
to come along and commit to its future. That's all I was talking about in
that paragraph. That's the "more" that I want.
 
I hope this is more clear.
 
John
