hi Andy,

I think I accidentally rewrote the wording of this goal, as you had it posted.

I’m still learning my way through this system. So my apologies!

Please re-edit your goal as appropriate.

I’ll figure out what I’m doing wrong.

Regards,
Jay

So, wonderful idea… practical tips anyone? Or is it an add your own actions as a thing to do?

*Things, can only get better! Can only get, can only get, things! * ad infinitum, yeah!

Love to all!
Halo

Jay my friend, don’t worry about it – I think it works just as well with the addition of ‘artistic’.

Halo, hello to you as well my friend! It’s an ‘add your own actions as a thing to do’ kind of thing. You don’t need to, of course – it’s a statement of focus, of intent is how I imagined it. I think the idea behind this site is the spreading of cultural viruses, to find out the hugely important and tiny mundane things that all equally occupy people’s minds. So I’d say this is like a positive reinterpretation of the chain letter, where an idea – or meme – gets passed around and grows and grows and grows. I think it’s completely open but the idea of a spell cast in cyberspace fascinates me; I’ve never done this before and I think it should prove interesting for all those who sign up as saying ‘yes, I can agree to that and add my energies and thoughts and actions’.

How we act is up to us. It might be as simple as committing to more recycling, or as challenging as taking on politicians about environmental issues. It might be prayer, it might be helping someone on the street who asks for directions… There are countless ways in which we can ‘pay it forward’ as the film goes: the idea being that the more positivity we push out, the more it grows. The snowball effect. x
