When I was younger I spent more of my focus on political and community activities with the desire to help improve, as well as save the world. My focus was directed to equality; women's equality. Lots of time and energy was spent in that arena and after going through a steep learning curve in the political front, and having some rather remarkable life changing events, I changed my focus of where I was putting my time and energy. I still had desires to help improve and change the world, but the focus shifted towards tapping in and using the subtle energies within that are centered in the heart and shared in a similar fashion.
So when some of my good friends, who I love and admire, were joking around and soliciting me to help bring people to action I politely declined to get involved. I support their views. I support their activities. I just know my energy and time needs to be spent on efforts that are more subtle in nature. My activities to help save and improve the world are now all behind the scenes. It doesn’t mean I’m copping out, by any means. It is just that I have the awareness my strengths and abilities are in different areas and the greater value of where I contribute is done through energy.
I recognize the gifts and abilities I have can help in ways most people cannot so I have chosen to move to working behind the scenes where I can lend my time and energy to promote improvements and changes. I recognize there is no flare and very few can initially see the affects of what is being done. But I also know and have absolute certainty they are making a difference.
