Unclear Intent

You can tell a lot about someone through their intent. How do they spend their time? What do they talk about? What path are they on? Strong intent can carve a tunnel from the present moment to a better future.

This isn’t restricted to humans. Every type of organization behaves with intent, including entire nations. A change in the intent of a nation indicates a change in the priorities of its people. Can you spot a change in the intent around us?

America seems to be striving towards something different than it did 50+ years ago. The pace of physical improvement has slowed to a trickle. Some groups speak of equalization replacing advancement. Other groups see reaching outer space as a panacea. Sometimes it feels like we’re out of new ideas.

I wonder where we’re headed.
