Jewell Parker RhodesIf we are all strong, stable, we can set our sail with any wind in the world that comes along. We make up our own direction. If we are not strong, we are like a leaf in the wind and the world's winds will take us where they wish, not where we wish. So we meditate, every day, regularly, and gain transcendental being in our everyday life and then we are strong.

All I can do now is help make people aware of what is happening, of what they are doing. That is all that I can do. For now.
