Sharing a Vision
Last night I shared a vision. A vision of connection and the reason behind the work I do. A vision of the present and future. A vision of purpose. A vision to “up the ante.”
Last night I shared a vision to a few people close to me. To a few people who wondered why they were there. To a few people who “get it” even when they do not realize they do. To a few people who are on a path toward realizing their purpose in this life.
Last night I shared a vision. The experience was awkward and new. Am I mad? Who do I think I am? Was I more afraid that they would not take me seriously or that they would, indeed, take me seriously?
I stayed up most the night after everyone went home. I could not sleep. I stared into the darkness as I laid in bed, hour after hour, wondering what the responses will be when the message has time to sink in. Wondering what actions may be taken after the response. Wondering what the impact will be after the actions.
Finally I slept. Still not knowing.
And the LORD said unto Moses: ‘Gather unto Me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tent of meeting, that they may stand there with thee.
And I will come down and speak with thee there; and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone.
Number 11:24-25
This was last week’s Torah portion. It kept running through my mind while you were talking. Don’t be thinking I think you’re all Moses or anything now…

Yikes! No, I don’t believe that I am Moses, the Messiah, or anyone’s guru. Although a part of me snarks from the quiet recesses of my mind that perhaps a part of me would like to be.
But having certain people who understand the implicit purpose explicitly and can share the work of building and maintaining the energy is a good thing — for me, for the group, and for the individuals.
