| The mini-EconoSpace lures me with promises whenever I stray close to its lair. Each time I am coaxed a little closer, touch and feel the empty shell as if it might give me a clear answer. |
|
|
| I lay in a temporary floor. Oil the parched cladding boards. Contemplate the future through the empty frame of a recycled window. |
|
|
| I am being taken apart cell by cell, each laid carefully away to be available for reassembly. I watch in fascination as I crack and dissolve. The world is a different place from this perspective. My emotions have come to the fore as if making up for the lack or corpuscular identity. Old hurts and embarassments parade by. |
| What remains of me is strung tight but out of tune. A new moon eases some of this tension, offers hope of improvement. Cracking and dissolving I might be but a new me is simultaneously being formed. |
| I stumble through the days like a newborn. Slowly it becomes clear that I am in the Here & Now. This is something of a shock. For so long this destination was my objective. Now that I have arrived I hardly know what to do. |
|
|
| This is where the future is constructed. Foundations laid. Ideas sketched out. Plans formulated. Life breathed into a matrix of hope and fear. |
| Each moment is ripe with possibility. I surrender to this excitement, glimpse my reflection in each thought and action, allow the thrill of the unknown to surround me. |
| In a moment of clarity I realise something simple – that I can change myself merely by thinking about it. While, somewhere in myself, I already knew this, understanding the implications is new. |
| We have leap-frogged evolution and can by-pass its slow rate of change. This goes to the very heart of consciousness offering us the potential to remake ourselves in whatever form we desire. |
| The future is made in the Here & Now. What we eat. What we do. What we say. How we say it. |
|
|
| The EconoSpace mirrors my reconstruction. A naked frame fleshed with clay and straw. Gaping holes to be filled with perseverance. Empty windows offering clear vistas into the evolving future. |
