2017 REFLECTIONS – Signature ROA 2017 Moments


ASPIRE TO INSPIRE

Aspiration and Inspiration, together, turn our dreams and hopes into a meaningful mission. They play an intricate role in shaping our minds and our lives. With aspiration, we pursue for what is possible, what can be achieved. With inspiration, we feel the passion and contentment in our hearts throughout our pursuit. When one is stronger, the strength and energy pulls the other up. When one is weak, the other re-engages us and keeps us moving forward.

Together, let us encourage each other to find our possibilities to ‘Aspire to Inspire’ at the 2017 Retreat of Awakening in Estes Park, Colorado!
