Lets play it is linked to three magic liquids in bottles. One is truth, one is grace and the third is love. You know, if people drink the three liquids, then their life and that of the people around them will change. If someone drinks truth, he or she will be fully truthful. No lies will come out of their mouth. They will suddenly be fully reliable, since they always tell the truth. If they drink the liquid of grace, they will be full of grace towards others. Forgiveness will be in their heart and their mind. They will be open to newly start relationships. They will be full of insight into the difficulties and limitations of others, but also into their capabilities and potential. {{ 2011_11_29_2.jpg}} The third liquid is love. With that they will receive an open heart to be fully appreciative for other people. Love fully sees the other person, with all what it is. And love has the ability to give and support, to even loose itself to be there for the other. Love is able to step back, to create space for other people. How would you reach people with the three liquids? ... How would you reach people with the three liquids? You might travel around and offer them "truth", "grace" and "love" ... is that a good approach? You might print a flyer and distribute it. You might produce ads and little films to tell what you have on offer ... What if people do not want to drink "truth", since they fear to be honest? What if they do not want "grace", since they rather do not want to forgive? What if they do not want to drink from "love", since they are afraid to be left behind when they do not fight? Imagine you know that a world with these three qualities would be much better than without it. Imagine you know that as soon as a group of people starts to drink them all, that something exciting starts to evolve ... how would you sell the three liquids?
