 Soul Power

"How much value should we put in our BS, MS, PhD's, when we are not able to solve the issues in our own country, state, city, neighborhood, homes, selves? None of the prophets, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, had 'letters', yet, from obedience, were able to affect a world. Perhaps we are trying to Master the wrong education." 

- Sean Muhammad
