This is an idea that’s fascinated me lately. So much so that I’m having my artist friend Bowen sketch a tattoo design with this as the theme. So what’s gotten my attention? The concept of vision.
Seeing beyond the here and now is one of the most vital values of someone who wants to accomplish something great. Our lives are meant to tell big stories and show big truths. Without vision, people perish. We lose hope and drive. Vision is the perception of something bigger and better on the horizon. Holding vision by faith enables us to tap into the big future we are made for. And sharing vision with others is how we bring others along with us into a new reality.
