My
Work
I see my work as the charge of "Being the change I
want to see in the world." As a leader, and simply
as a responsible adult, I accept the "response-ability"
to go first where I want others to go. Through my writing,
public speaking, classes, and seminars I see my work as
embodying the principles of integrity, honesty, responsibility,
and accountability. Embodying these principles allows a
"presence in the moment" that I greatly value.
Embodying these principles allows a peaceful, loving awareness
that I greatly value.
I
have long since understood the necessity of living from
a balance of heart and mind, body and soul. In this world
I see that ability as greatly lost. I see people at war
with themselves and each other. I see my work as modeling
and teaching that there is another way; that peace is possible
in mind, body, soul, and spirit. I see my work as teaching
that as we are aware of who we are and what our purpose
is that we can bring great peace and love to ourselves and
each other. I see my work as consciously undoing the fears
that we are deliberately taught. I see my work as consciously
teaching and living the model of "power within"
and "power with" rather than the model of "power
over". "Power over" is a model based on fear
and separation. "Power within" and "power
with" are models based on respect, cooperation, and
community. I believe that as we consciously model respect
for ourselves and each other we will undo the model of fear
that presently grips this world and our lives. I see my
work as a sacred trust and as a gift that is mine to share
in each moment. I truly do believe that I have the power
to change my life in each moment and I bring that awareness
with me so that others may witness that change is possible
and that they have the same power, and the same choice,
if they so choose! I see that as how peace is possible in
this world.
