STANDING ALONE Standing alone is the only way to gain a gathering. That’s the paradox no one seems to under- stand. If one wishes to be true to all others, one must first be able to stand alone. All great leaders know this instinctively. One must embrace one’s truth, then those who are keen enough will sense it ineluctably, and the many will become one. Earth urgently needs one to come forward with truth so that billions of others can join and all can become one. The courage one needs is first to be able to stand alone, not an easy thing to do, but necessary. Be brave, be intransigent, be yourself. TOD HOWARD HAWKS
