43 – Preservation and Progress: Nurturing Healthy Growth and Change
There are two seemingly opposing forces at work in all living organisms: the drive to change and the drive to stay the same. The conservative/progressive divide in our culture indicates this dynamic is at work intensely right now.

Healthy growth happens through providing the necessary conditions and building to the point where insight and learning takes place.
