I was working a couple of years ago with some under 40 people whom I invited to my home to talk about the work of the Center for Courage and Renewal and to learn from them how they saw that work and how they responded to it. And I remember in the middle of that three-day meeting that we had, it was so illuminating and edifying for me. I remember saying to these young people, as I have been talking with you here for the last day and a half, an image has come to me, which is that at my age, and I think I was probably 71 or two then, I feel as if I'm standing somewhere down the curvature of the earth at a place where I can't see the same horizon you're able to see from where you're standing higher up on that curve. So I need your eyes and ears. I need you to tell me what you’re hearing and what you’re seeing because the horizon you’re looking at is coming at me whether I know it or not. There is a new world arriving. There always is a new world arriving.1
