I was given the opportunities to have an impact and succeed while the power to do so was stifled and repressed. My inner power was weak and atrophied. I was an island upon myself in complete isolation. I was in an ever present place of fear and desperation.
Today, I realize that I must empower myself. I cannot look outward to find my inner strength. I must look within to find my source. The power of the universe that is the true origin of my strength. Here there is infinite power, potentiality and possibility. This is the origin of true growth.
