Very encouraging! An increasing number of people, including leaders in diverse sectors, are recognizing the urgency and value of partnering with, working with, investing in, adn learning from young people. How wonderful to meet a group of beautiful, influential leaders from the corporate, public, non-profit, and intellectual circles who truly believe and are acting upon the need to work with young people and to proactively invest in shaping a new generation of leaders.

Like others out in the world, I have been proselityzing about the revolutionary impacts of technologies--especially the Internet, and yet this is the first time I "come out of the closet" of technological apprehension and enter a small reflection of my being onto cyberspace. A cyber community. Hmmm.

So much to say. So much to do. So in love with the world and yet so afraid of the world. So full of hope for the future and yet frozen at times by despair with the present.

All the rhetoric of youth... it passes fast; my late twenties have vanished like so many clouds of dust left behind by a speeding car in the desert. The early thirties are here and Idealism, Hope, and Faith in Humanity wake up sad and drunken some days, ashamed at the horrors that people do to eachother and to our sweet earth, frightened by the inmensity of the power we humans now hold in our hands.

But the voice of Hope, the Idea of Youth, Faith in the mysterious and seemingly eternal ability of humanity to renew itself through young people--You, We--awakens me once again and I Believe, again and again, I believe.

We can change the world. We can make this world a better place. One young person at a time. One human being at a time. We grow fast. Time passes quickly, especially for those most intensely engaged in learning, leading, growing.

No time to dilly dally. The challenges of the world are great--at times it seems that truly, never in known history have they been greater. These are times for great dreams and great actions. We cannot afford to be shy.

Greetings and blessings to you amazing, beautiful people out there. You know who you are.
