[Oe List ...] Another Perspective

Tue Sep 30 21:28:45 EDT 2008

So which comes first... the chicken or the egg?

Quantum Physics informs me that what I (the observer) focus on is important toward creating what will happen.  In the early years of the Order that was represented by "The Story Creates the Event".  Part of the question for me and all of us is... What do we want to happen?  What "truth or truths" are we grounded in?  What is the story we are willing to participate in creating?
We truly live in some amazing times.

Dear Colleagues,
Not so fast!  To try and compare our current situation with 29 is a fallacy (bank failures, mortgage failures, etc.).  We live in totally different times with a global economy and much more powerful forces at work.  We are in a much more chaotic time, by that I mean the number of factors that can affect any situation and the complexity are so much more that we don't know where in the world, or what in the world will tip things.  Secondly, if you haven't watched the chapters on <http://www.chrismartenson.com> please do so.  You will see that we are living in "hockey stick" times.   That is, all the curves that affect our lives are in the exponential part of the curves.  We are heading up rapidly on every curve that matters and when they all interact there is no telling what the result will be except that we are headed for monumental change.  I defy anyone to look at the present statistics and project what will happen.  The intersections of the Economy, Energy and Environment have never happened before.  So before we calm down and say the sky isn't falling, let's get a clear picture of what is and is not holding up the sky these days.

G&P,
Jack
