Spark

It's a shame to be stuck in self created (or inherited) borders - a box of our own making. Change is hard and change is fearful and worse still is a lack of curiosity to step outside these boundaries that limit and hold us in ignorance. Yet we're all afraid. We're all ignorant. Except when we're not. Borders are shattered in unexpected moments and often curiosity is born in fragile moments. Siddhartha's trek to become the Buddha began when he first sighted disease, poverty and death - a spark to his awakening. What will ours be? We all have within us the potential fire of enlightenment waiting to burn - we only need a spark.

Peace,
Eric
