Epiphanies
An epiphany is seeing the same world again, but differently this time. What was your last epiphany? It could have been a life changing Damascus experience, or simply a refreshing “a-ha” moment. Either way, your world was suddenly different, you saw things in a changed light, your perspective was profoundly shifted. Looking back, you realise that you were not seeing new lands, but seeing with new eyes. Epiphanies are like that. Our paradigm – the basic pattern which structures our thinking – changes. We spot the underlying assumptions that shape our world view and we begin to question our most cherished beliefs.
