Peter M. Senge

“...[A] third level of "seeing" can unfold that unlocks our deepest levels of commitment. This open will is the most difficult of the three shifts to explain in abstract terms, but it can be powerful and self-evident in concrete terms. For South Africans twenty years ago, I believe it unfolded in whites and blacks' discovering their love for their country--not for their government or established systems, but for their country itself....[They] felt deeply connected to the land, and the place, and the people of country. This deep connection to place existed for most black and South Africans as well, despite their oppression. I truly believe the that new South Africa was forged through this common connection, this deep dense that it was an almost sacred duty to create a country that could survive and thrive in the future--and only together this could be done.”
