Wizards was one big success!  Im glad I set aside all of my doubts about coming and worked to get here.  My most memorable moment was when I could feel the unconditional love my parents always felt for me.  Once I set aside all the things that were in the way I could really feel it.  It was the first time in my life that I cried out of happiness.  Even wriitng about it makes me happy again.  After this big Wizards clean up,  I can see that our purpose is not to fulfill our own desires, but to undertake actions that serve the whole of mankind.   I think everybody admires people like Ghandi,  Mr. Mandela,  and Dr. King.  My realizaiton now is that they were not born this way.  They chose their path deliberately.  And, I think everybody can walk this path simply by coming out of their comfort zone with courage and choosing to do it.  Live Deliberately!
