Can we lighten the seriousness of someone’s self-expression by appreciating the importance of what is said? Appreciation and importance, however, are not the same as<\/em> seriousness.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Now, let\u2019s go back to the spotlight lens. Energy is converted into light and back into energy in the object. What happens when light from our sun is directed through a lens on a piece of paper? It warms up and then goes up in flames. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What happens when a large group of people direct their attention at one individual? What happens when thousands of people direct their appreciation and attention toward a group of people on a stage? Who are the ones that feel more energized?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\nto True Freedom<\/span> and Independence<\/span>!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
