    Intro: Gail Nobles

    Through the words of Tina Turner, I hear the chambers of collective struggle, Tina Turner. We don’t need another hero in her powerful voice. She speaks to the heart of our individual souls as we go through this turbulent landscape we call life we find ourselves journey for something more something greater than what lies within our own experiences.

    Tina implores us to consider the landscape of our existence asking not for another savior to emerge from the shadows, but rather for a path that leads us beyond our own personal thunderdomes. What is a hero? What we truly seek is not someone to rescue us from our struggles, but an awakening - a change in our society.

    She sings of change, and when I listen, I too wonder: When will we ever change? When will we rise up and hold the reins of our destinies, embracing our capacity to shape a world free from the chains of fear and despair? We have been searching, yearning for something — a foundation upon which we can build our dreams, a pillar of strength that we can rely on as we strive for a better tomorrow.

    Look around you. We live in a world where too many of us remain shackled by fear and uncertainty where our voices are stifled, and our hopes dimmed, We must not allow ourselves to live only to leave a mark, a fleeting impression that soon fades. Rather, we must strive to create a legacy of courage and love that stands against the storm. We must seize this moment for living under the blanket of fear. It only leads to a hollow existence, empty of meaning, until there is nothing left.

    It is time for us to rise, together as one, to reach for the life beyond the Thunderdome — a life filled with purpose, justice, and love. Let us refuse to be passive spectators in our own lives. Let every heartbeat be a drumbeat for change, every breath a pledge to forge a brighter path for the generations to come.

    So I say to you, let us not wait for another hero to come save us. Let us be the heroes of our own story, the architects of change in our communities, the guardians of hope in times of despair. The answers lie within us, and together, united in our dreams, we shall not only envision a better future but also create it!

    I’m Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening.
