A "Black Swan Event" is when the unexpected occurs, causing a huge mindshift and change in how the world works. People never imagined that Black Swans existed, until the discovery of the first Black Swan... (as per book "The Black Swan", by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, 2007, that sold over 3 million copies)

Is a perception change the next Black Swan Event? Consider that by changing perception we might change the world. Look at everyday things from different angles. Find beauty in the unexpected...
Change our thinking, change our actions, change our world!

See that all people are part of God's puzzle and have something to give. Black swans do exist. The ugly duckling was actually a swan who needed to discover himself and where he fitted and be who he was meant to be. To the last, the lost and the least, you are beautiful as you are.
May all who visit this page feel God's touch and experience His blessing...

The Danger of Stereotypes

Why do we continue to speak in stereotypes and fail to see individuals?

If we see people as individuals, we may realise that the children we see around us today are not the same people as in yesterday's history, as many of these children are just as much the victims of the actions of their ancestors. And we might realise that not all the people of history long past were bad people either, even if they looked the same as each other.
