<p><strong>Energy: drives everything. Needs to be refreshed, renewed, lifted – every day. A live, cyclical force. Find the flows, like updrafts on a ridge. Ride them, high enough so you can safely glide when they wan, finding the next updraft before gravity pulls you down.&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p><strong>Faith lies in knowing that another updraft will follow. The trick is knowing where to look for more, and having patience enough to find it.</strong></p>
