Maps are iconic as representations of ‘objects, places, relations, and events.’*

Traditionally icons are windows or portals to some deeper truth or experience.

Our lives can be iconic too.

When we live our lives in an iconic way, we make all we are and know and have available to one another.

As I write, in about an hour, I’m going to meet with others to imagine an iconic experience, something we hope will make available deeper possibilities for personal and community development in and of a complex world.  (We’re always happy to share what we’ve been up to.**)
