Transformation

 To flow joyously through life's daily processes, it appears we must understand that transformation is essential. Simply put, I'm talking about change. Everything changes, but earthly forces press us to resist change at almost every level. Truly creative individuals seem to be the ones who understand moving beyond the fear of change. Propelled by a love of freshness and a zeal for challenge, they bring to us new and wonderful inventions, ideas, and stories that will transform our descendants' world into a place you and I will probably not recognize, even if we could look into a crystal ball and see it with our very own eyes.

A ploy of the changeless to force us into anti-transformation is dressing up the doll, Suzy Same in space age polymer outfits.  Ah, good trick, but Suzy's still a Same. We see Suzy in every area of our life that is in dire need of true reform such as many school districts in our public education system across the nation; harsh,judgmental religious institutions; groups coalesced by bigotry such as the KKK; my list, unfortunately, could go on well past my bedtime, but I think the point is made. But why? It just felt right coming out of my fingers and on to the keys. It's the evening snack I'm serving tonight for thought.

With them indeed is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah that says:
'You will indeed listen, but never understand,

and you will indeed look, but never perceive.                                 
For this people's heart has grown dull,                           
and their ears are hard of hearing,
and they have shut their eyes;
so that they might not look with their eyes,
and listen with their ears,
and understand with their heart
and turn-
and I would heal them.'
Matthew 13:15
