Real presence is the ideal of all true individuation. When we yield to helplessness,
we strengthen the hand of those who would destroy. When we choose indifference,
we betray our world. Yet the world is not decided by action alone.
It is decided more by consciousness and spirit; they are the secret sources of all action
and behavior. The spirit of a time is an incredibly subtle, yet hugely powerful force.
And it is comprised of the mentality and spirit of all individuals together.
Therefore, the way you look at things is not simply a private matter.
Your outlook actually and concretely affects what goes on. When you give in
to helplessness, you collude with despair and add to it. When you take back
your power and choose to see the possibilities for healing and transformation,
your creativity awakens and flows...
