“When you are a Bear of Very Little Brain, and you Think of Things, you find sometimes that a Thing which seemed very Thingish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it.”   – Winne the Pooh

I have felt that way many, many times.  The truth is that, sometimes, you must sit on an idea or a vision until you’ve fleshed it out enough to present it to others.  Many times a prematurely presented vision or idea will die a cruel and undeserving death just because we haven’t held on to it long enough before going public.  The public generally doesn’t have the most generous views of visionary ideas.  We must nurture these things before they are born.  Fresh ideas and God-honoring visions need a gestation period before they are seen by the public.
