The best way to make things better is to begin. Create the conditions for others to join you.*
Seth Godin

‘Yes, but …’ she began. Then she caught herself. ‘I guess that’s my problem isn’t it, way too many Yes, buts.**
Brian McLaren

I have just been reminded of Seth Godin’s book
Purple Cow;^ when I first read this, I thought,
If I were to write a book, I would
want it to be like this, so, I pulled the book our
of my library to find that
it will soon be twenty years since I read it –
One of my many yes-but moments.

I know that I am at another moment for
starting something for the sake of others;
Who knows what others will begin if we do
what we must do next? – thought we shouldn’t
send our minds spinning by wondering – only,
If there is something we feel we must do then
we should start: what might this be for you?
