I just downloaded The Struggle by Urban Voodoo. It's a song about the struggle of growing up in a chaotic, abusive environment and trying to break free.
There are many people who want to be a positive force in this world but find themselves bogged down by depression and anxiety that is directly related to living a life of trauma. It is important for us to support the adult children who want to uplift the youth of today if we ever hope to break these destructive cycles.
If you are bold enough to admit that abuse happens and that it leaves a lasting impact. If you are bold enough to support the children and not the adults who abuse them, spend 99 cents on this single. Go to: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/urbanvoodoo

On Sunday May 2nd, the L.A. Derby Dolls, Southern California’s premiere all-female, banked track roller derby league, will lead a skating clinic for the Children of the Night as part of the Big Sunday, the annual volunteer weekend that takes place across Southern California.
Children of the Night is a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing and empowering children who have been forced into prostitution. This is the second year that they have worked with L.A. Derby Dolls on Big Sunday.
After skating, community service is the most important thing that the L.A. Derby Dolls do. The Dolls have worked with the Human Rights Campaign, St. Vincent Medical Center (for a women’s health and wellness clinic), After School All Stars, and M.E.N.D, among many other projects, and were honored in 2009 as a Treasure of Los Angeles by the Central City Association (an honor that puts the Dolls in the company of the L.A. Dodgers and Magic Johnson).
Big Sunday is an annual weekend that takes place in the spring when thousands of people from Southern California, of all ages and all backgrounds, work together at hundreds of nonprofits, schools and other agencies that need their help. Big Sunday Weekend is one of the largest regional community service events in America.
Here's a video of The White Stripes performing Catch Hell Blues for a huge audience at Germany's Rock am Ring. Check it out. The feeling I get when I watch this is similar to the feeling I get when watching The Song Remains the Same movie about Led Zeppelin. This crowd is something else. Very hypnotic.

This video is about a movie being made from a movement. There's some interesting footage of people in action at a grass roots level. I have long wanted to be the kind of person who makes a difference but it seems I was always getting in my own way.
I didn't always know that's what I was doing but as I look back on the past with the knowledge and experience I have now, I know..."It was all me, every bit of it me."
I proclaim that 2010 is going to be an exception to the rule. If there's a shift going on (and I do believe there is) I want to be a part of it.
I have three goodies for you and each one will contribute to galvanizing your mind and preparing you get out of your own way and take action on your dreams and desires:
1) a free hypnosis MP3 titled Create the Life You Want at my iCreateHabits.com blog
2. Songs to Galvanize Your Mind list available here.
3. The Sheri and Erin Show on Blog Talk Radio.
Each of these goodies will give your mind what it needs to live free from fear so you can take part in 'The Shift' if you're ready.
