Who are the visionaries of today?

Monday, February 25th, 2008

Who are the visionaries of today?  Are they the people with special abilities, insights or powers to influence and see into the future?  People wiser and more enlightened than you or I?

In my humble opinion, no. 

Today’s visionaries are the everyday women and men who are waking up to their true power and ability to create a more harmonious, responsible, and tolerant world.  

They are the optimists who balance realism with idealism. 

They are the hopeful ones who create opportunities and possibilities. 

They are the ones that see and experience pain and suffering yet hold steadfast to the belief that one small action can make a difference.  

They are the ones that even when they begin to loose hope, reach out to something bigger than themselves to reclaim their belief in the goodness of the universe and humankind.  

These people are today’s visionaries.
