Peeling Ideas
OPENING
All of our days are numbered; we cannot afford to be idle. To act on a bad idea is better than not act at all because the worth of the idea never becomes apparent until you do it. Sometimes this idea can be the smallest thing in the world, a little flame that you hunch over and cup with your hand and pray will not be extinguished by all the storm that howls about it. If you can hold on to that flame, great things can be constructed around it that are massive and powerful and world-changing – all held up by the tiniest of ideas.

Last year, amidst the horrifying global vertigo, we stood startled, wondering, “Where Do We Go Now?” searching for new ideas for the world, a new canvas on which we could write our stories from scratch. Ideas kept on coming from everywhere. We hung on every one of them as if they were tiny lanterns in the dark, radiating warmth of arms wide open in agonizing times of limited and regulated touching. When we finally met again, our conversations became endless. We obviously had so much unsaid to share…
This year, it’s time to act and develop together the imagery of a new tomorrow. Layer by layer, we’ll be peeling off ideas - we’ll leave the worn, threadbare, and withered behind us and let the light shine new, moving images on the new, white layers we’ll discover.
