W hen we talk about vision, we often think of far-off goals and dreams that live on the horizon, pulling us forward. But vision is more than a destination; it’s a way of seeing. It’s the belief that what we imagine can take shape, that tomorrow can be brighter if we dare to dream it into being. Dreams are what give us direction, but vision is what gives those dreams life. Vision is both personal and communal: it asks us to look inward at what we hope for ourselves, and outward toward what we can create together. I was reminded of this truth in my hometown, Stuart, Florida. It holds a piece of my heart. There’s something about walking downtown with the scent of salt in the air and music drifting out from a small café that feels right. People wave. They talk to you. Not because they have to, but because that’s who they are. I love it here because it reminds me of what’s important. Real connections and slowing down and enjoying the moment… and isn’t that what vision really is? As we look ahead, may we hold fast to our dreams, nurture our vision, and stay grounded in the simple joys that remind us why we dream in the first place. —Glen Fetzner Note From the Editor
