I asked them to draw from within, to trust their internal instinct and to not worry about the crowd and to hold on to their beliefs and desires for change. I hold on to the fact that I do make a difference with what I do regardless of how minute the change or how triumphant the change, I draw on my gift to try to help others to find theirs, or stimulate their gifts. many of us are holding on and helping to hold up, and to draw from the pass to engage in the present and forge ahead to the future-gaining strength from the ancestral spiritual pool.
