One of the most basic facts about reality is change. Every day we are defining and redefining ourselves. What the present and future will be, is being created by the values and ideas we hold. Each moment is a defining experience about what reality is, and what is good and needs to be held onto, and what ought to thrown away because it stands in the way of the better. What counts is what we do with each day. We create, form and shape the world.
