Words from Tom Dundee's famous song comes to me:

And its all such a delicate balance Takes away just as much as it gives, To live it is real, to love it is to feel You're a part of what everything is.

And who told you you don't have the power to change things for the better? Who told you that? Render him mute by not listening. Know you have the power.

A quote seen in my web travels:

"We must believe that we are gifted for something, and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained." - Marie Curie 1897-1956

Find that gift, know it in your 'deep heart's core', and manifest this in the world. Know you have the power.

I know I have the power...
I will manifest my visions into reality...
They will remanifest, having been given a life of their own...
I know I have the power...

You have the power. We have the power. Claim it by knowing it. Start with the knowing and then the ways of manifesting will become clear.

Pulling it forth...

As I thought about this, I realized this perfectly defines JOY for me, which answers the 52 Figment question, "What is your definition of JOY?"

"What brings me joy:
Creating, bringing forth from the unknown:
What I create has a life of its own!"

"To the FUTURE!"

scarab, sacred symbol of evolution, regeneration and transformation . . .
