Let's join forces so that you can discover these realities for yourself. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to discover your superpowers and learn to use them for your good. Here is where I come in. Together, we will practice the powers of forgiveness and embrace change. This will not come easy in today's society, but we will build a team around you!”
