No We Can't, Yes We Can!

" ... pessimists are usually right, optimists are usually wrong, but most great changes were made by optimists." — Thomas Friedman, New York Times, May 11, 2008
Ever felt like the mission of Kabbalah is too big? Like what we do may not make a difference. The environment is too far gone, people's natures are too difficult to change, who are we kidding?
Yes, I get it. These problems we're addressing are greater than us. The tide of negativity is enormous. The task before us - removing the energy of death! - is overwhelming. But let's not forget our work here is important.
We want to change the world - it's going to be difficult. Our methodologies are going to be different than what most people think or expect. We have to stay optimistic because that's how we will change the world, despite how 'right' the pessimists may be.
Today, have a strong belief in your birth-right to do well, to succeed, to win over challenges and overcome obstacles. That strong belief — when real — will come from trusting the Light, and being connected. That's when magic happens.
Being an optimist is like telling the Creator "I believe in you. I don't know how you are going to make it work, or when, but I know you can and will!"
