Don't let the world fool you. You are POWERFUL. Despite the degrading ads and shrink-to-fit herding, you still hold this power. You've had the power all along. How do I know? From 2-cells, you peopled yourself into existence—cell by cell—all without religion, instructions, research, or formal education. You crafted your heart before knew love. Built your brain before you had thoughts. And gave yourself eyes before you saw light. 
We are powerful beyond measure!
So, why do we find ourselves feeling so perpetually annoyed, overwhelmed,
insecure, or inadequate? Because quickly after our miraculous peopling and arrival onto the planet – we are dimmed, dulled, directed, and driven into chairs, cages, and cubicles, jumping through hoop after hoop. Following expectations and obeying all their rules - until we retire or fall into coffins.  But there is another way. Your own way. You don’t have to follow along, conform, or perform. In fact, I encourage the 180 opposite. Of course, that is looked down upon by most average, bland-flavored, and cliché folks - but the truth is, sourcing your own juice is what brought to the planet. And that?! Makes us ALL valuable, worthy and powerful. No need to search outside ourselves, self-help ourselves, or soak in Sunday salvation. We are marvelous - just by our arrival. We are powerful simply by peopling ourselves into existence. Is there any greater miracle? Our power is a defiant just by being alive! We just need to wake up from the institutional amnesia they inflict upon us. Don't get with their program and create your own life - like you did in the womb.
