Empower Yourself to Empower Others or Vice Versa?

I know that saying "empower yourself" is starting to be one of those "always repeated", "corny" things that you hear almost every day... Or not? Actually, if I think about it, you don't hear that on the mainstream media, which is pushing the opposite side, sucking our power out...

Did you notice that you are served things like "We know better what is good for you", follow this, follow that, "try this product it will change your life", etc... Well, I have bad news for you... There is no "product" that you can buy that will change your life... Except for chocolate... :)

So, we have a great social media network where we can publish our thoughts, opinions, gratitudes, messages, and we can interact with other people on the network... Showing them our support, appreciation, learning from them, helping each other to grow... At the end of the story, we are here for others, and others are here for us...

We have a lot of power in our hands, and it's a pity that there are people that don't use that power... I blame negative influences that are "presenting" us that we have no power, but that isn't true... We are much more powerful than it looks... And when we start to use that power, we are not "consuming" it, we are building it up...
