“It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you NOT to be? You are a child of God. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence liberates others.”

This could preach

Three little words. Words that bring hope to a generation, young and old, white, black, latino and other who know in their hearts and mind that something or perhaps EVERYTHING MUST CHANGE. No, change is not easy. No, standing up for hope in a sea of doubt, status quo thinking, defeatist mentalities is never ever easy but it must be done.

There is a NEW BREED, people who believe that what “they” say is impossible IS POSSIBLE.
There is a NEW BREED, people who rather stand for something, than quarrel about everything.
There is a NEW BREED, people who are tired of talking about making a difference and finally are willing to “BE THE DIFFERENCE”.
There is a NEW BREED, riding the next wave of the Spirit of God, fighting for a revolution of hope, taking the first steps toward change.
Why, because we had enough.
Why, because we can.
Yes, we can.
Si, se puede!

    That is a cooool music video. I saw it last week when Karla sent it to me. Not sure yet who we’re voting for but we do like Obama’s style.
