The Power of One,
It only takes one person to make a difference in this world. We all have the ability to stand in our truth, follow our heart and listen to our higher power when we hear the call.
I can't stop thinking about the power ONE PERSON can make. One heart can forever make a difference in the lives of so many. One person jumps in, that one jump gathers many who then create a movement to send shock waves across the globe.. LITERALLY! Seeing the Sound of Freedom this last week has me all up in my feels. Such a compelling and emotionally charged film centered around themes of liberation, courage, and perseverance. Seeing first hand the struggles and triumphs of individuals fighting for freedom, justice, and human rights.
Being from Utah, I have known about OUR (Operation Underground Railroad) and their mission. I know many who advocate for them, many who have worked for them first hand and listened to story after story. I've been following them and seeing interviews from many sources over the last few years. My heart hurt time and time again learning about all of it. It's so gut wrenching, it's literally hard to wrap your head around it all. I mean, I am a very logically minded person and yet my cognitive dissonance is HIGH and continues pushing back on the reality that this is the world in which we live. And yet, here we are. We are all in the eye of the storm.
From the heart and soul of one fearless activist and dedicated undercover agent working to combat various forms of oppression, such as human trafficking, modern slavery, and political tyranny within the system. The story told in the film took the audience on a gripping journey through the dark and dangerous world that so many are up against. The stillness in the movie theater was palpable.
As the story unfolds, the movie sheds light on the harsh realities faced by victims of exploitation and the heroic efforts of those seeking to rescue them. Thank God for bravery and sacrifices of so many who valiantly stand in the face of darkness.
Truly an emotional rollercoaster that highlights the resilience of the human spirit even in the face of immense adversity.
The Sound of Freedom symbolizes the collective cry for justice and liberty, reverberating through the hearts of those who dare to fight against injustice. It might also signify the hope and solace brought to the oppressed when they are finally set free.
Real life mix of drama, thriller, and action, with an undercurrent of social commentary and advocacy for important global issues. A story that MUST be shared. The call for help in the “special message” at the end of movie spoke to me and so I am doing my part as requested; this is my call to you. I highly encourage you to see the move if you haven't.
Hold your people tight. Pray for good. Eyes and hearts wide open.
