ZEALOUS
What are you ZEALOUS about? What
makes you care? What gets your adrenalin
going and get up off the couch to make a difference? I am a child of the sixties and everything
mattered, the Vietnam War, racism, personal freedoms and those causes rocked
the world as we knew it. Then I noticed
that in the nineties when I was teaching that it seemed to me that no one
cared. During our first war with Iraq,
not one college protest made the news.
During our second war of “Shock and Awe,” young people didn’t seem to
notice that for the first time in our history, we invaded another country. But finally, a change seems to be
brewing. Alicia Keys, the thirty-three
year old singer is showing a ZEALOUS spirit with her knew song, “We Are Here”
Her ZEALOUS spirit is raising a voice of compassion, connection and
caring. Her ZEALOUS energy is taking
political action and beginning a grass roots movement to make a difference.
Let’s face it, Maya Angelou is gone and most of the activists from the sixties
are dead. It is time for a new ZEALOUS
energy to take over and bring America back and make it even greater than it
ever has been. Moving the mountains of
apathy and greed is going to take thousands of ZEALOTS with ZEALOUS energy that
will not be stopped until change is accomplished at the very basic heart and
soul of humanity in this country. Give
yourself permission to be ZEALOUS today and join a cause, any cause, with all of
your heart.
