Forerunners

Everyone wants to accomplish something in their life that has significance, because living for something that is bigger than ourselves gives us pleasure, meaning, and worth.

Every human is gifted with talents and abilities which when they are inspired, sharpened through use and nurtured, can transformation every area of our world. Never has their been a time in history where we have needed the reformation and wisdom of inspired men and women to reform our institutions. We must alleviate poverty, needless suffering and disease. We must take a stand for justice and equality, and push the boundaries of knowledge and understanding to new heights. Everyone of us is positioned to make a contribution to making our world what we image it to be, and beyond!

As stewards of the Earth it is our responsibility and destiny to manage its resources and develop its potential. As forerunners of the age-to-come it is our pleasure to create, reform and to set new benchmarks for standards in every area of our world starting with government, education, religion, entertainment, media, the arts, science and business. It is with wisdom we can transform every area we touch, though creativity, integrity, and the pursuit of excellence. We must reform what exists and discover what does not.

Every purpose we undertake will have challenges that require our mental, emotional and spiritual strength. Every objective has its difficulties which we must learn to let transform us rather than defeat us. They are to teach us and make us into the people we need to be to accomplish the purpose we set out to achieve. It is in the valleys when we can not see our objective that we gain or lose our dream. It is in these moments we must strengthen ourselves and believe we have the resources to overcome every obstacle. If we can do this, we can overcome anything. Our choices in crisis will determine our success. We therefore must learn to overcome doubt, disappointment and feelings of defeat. When we do, there is nothing which will be impossible for us.

    • RIM From 10,000 Feet December 1, 2011
      Inventors always want to protect their ideas so that only they can capitalize on them; however, that may be misguided. In the history of recent technology, being the “first in” has proven to be of no advantage – possibly even a disadvantage. At one time, there was a very good operating system called CPM that […]

    • Retire With Purpose October 17, 2011
      Recently a friend of mine retired from his job as an editor at the CBC. He had worked there for more than 30 years dodging layoffs and cutbacks to complete a full tenure at the Corporation. In fact, Mark worked for an additional 3 years beyond the required service even though he was ready in […]

    • An Anonymous Commentor wrote this skillful description of our world. October 16, 2011
      I had to publish this since it was so well said….. “Never before has the global financial system been so interlinked and integrated, which means that problems in one part of the world are capable of causing severe stress almost everywhere else. ” That’s globalism for you, folks. That’s what the globalists have forced upon […]

    • On October 6th……. September 15, 2011
      “The arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and assistance to foreign hands should be curtailed, lest Rome fall.” Cicero  – 55 BC Recently a friend from San Diego sent me a similar quote about the state of Rome in the era of Cicero. A little research revealed that the original quote (as shown […]

    • Is There Religious Freedom in Canada?? August 15, 2011
      Recently, I inquired about posting a film screening notice at the Stanley Park Community Centre. The attendant aggressively questioned if the film was religious (I gave her no reason to believe it was). I almost had to “swear an oath” that there was no religious content in the film before she would post the flyer […]

    • You May be Getting “Crammed” and Not Know It. July 15, 2011
      A few weeks ago in this column, I wrote about businesses who regularly take advantage of Canadians and who seem to get away with it because of their size. One of those companies I named was Bell Canada. Recently, the multi-media conglomerate was fined $10,000,000 (the maximum allowed by law) for deceptive advertising practises. Bell […]

    • Some Tough Questions – Some Tough Decisions June 15, 2011
      June will be the first month of parliament for a government which is eager to get things done. Although I am pleased that we now have a functioning government, I am cautious about the Conservative’s position on Cap and Trade. Prior to the federal election, the Canadian Science Advisory Board advised the Conservative government to […]

    • A New Charter of Rights May 26, 2011
      A few months ago, I rented a car in Costa Rica. To my surprise, the car rental company offered to provide me with a mobile phone for 30 days with unlimited calling anywhere in the country for just $10. I was shocked at how economical it was to provide the service. When I inquired about […]

    • Building The Future On The Past April 26, 2011
      There has been a lot of talk about growth in Wilmot Township recently with many references to the province’s  “Places to Grow” policy. The foundational principles of the document are to restrict growth in agricultural areas and to intensify growth in urban areas. There is abundant evidence that this policy is highly flawed and is […]

    • Politics From 10,000 Feet – Corruption March 10, 2011
      Waterloo Region has a whole new team of enthusiastic politicians eager to make their mark on the political fabric of our communities. I have high expectations for the good that can come from even one persistent, skilled, visionary leader. I think of Ira Needles and Jerry Hagey, co-founders of the University of Waterloo, whose positive […]
