What will you take

The willingness to be a force, a conduit for transformation evokes the joy of authentic connection and deeply felt purpose, but there is also a price to be paid. We cannot take our falsehoods with us. We must transcend the petty jealousies of party politics and our deeply held addiction to  approval. We must learn to walk our own path, a path that is wed to authentic values and a commitment to inculcate others with a sense of their own potential.
