At one time I wanted to write to Baby Boomers who have not yet completely yielded to self-imprisonment. When I think back, I realize that you don't have to be a Boomer to experience these warning signals.
• Feeling of superficiality and fakiness, having to play games.
• Creeping deadness... lack of enthusiasm for life, work, etc
• Aimlessness, lack of direction
• Weakness, helplessness to change situation, powerlessness
• Aware that you are not changing the world.... lack of social impact
If you recognize any of these symptoms in yourself, it’s time to wake up. Remember who you were meant to be.
AUTHENTIC
PASSIONATE • MOTIVATED • ENTHUSIASTIC
PURPOSEFUL
POWERFUL
SOCIALLY CONSCIOUS
Remember your roots! Draw strength from who you are.... Don't give in to the siren song of the cynics. Wake up! This is your life. It is not a dream. Open your eyes.
