“If you fear power, You may actually wish to avoid the responsibility, work, conflict or other demand it brings. However, if you deal realistically and honestly with power, if you continue to learn more about it, you will become more at ease with its use. Whether your efforts involve an office, a classroom, a city, or beyond, you will feel more alive, and you will discover the profound sense of personal fulfillment simply from knowing that you are willing to take part in making a difference.” Mark S. Homon Promoting Community Change, Making it Happen in the Real World Pg. 158 Drolette, E.
