In the book "Power vs. Force", David R. Hawkins contends that one single person who vibrates at a frequency of gratitude can negate the lower vibrating energies of 75,000 people. That number only grows as your vibration rises.

We are all handling the trauma of this year differently. People have different opinions, different stories and that's okay. But, when we understand energy and just how powerful our energy is, we can shift our thoughts towards peace for all. Compassion will make the changes we seek - every, single time.

I was put on this Earth to call for peace. I believe that by focusing on division, we only create more division. Everyone has a right to their emotions and expression - including people you disagree with. I tell my story about my time on Capitol Hill when I saw Steve Scalise rejoin Congress after nearly being shot to death during a congressional baseball game. Almost every member of the House was there with very few dry eyes in the room. But, when I watched the news that night, there was no mention of one of the most stark displays of unity we had seen since 9/11.

You may feel different than the views I express, and that's okay. I appreciate you and your role on this planet. We are all one, no matter what. When we start having compassion for everyone and everything, even when it's difficult, that's when real change will take place.
