Card of The Day: The High Priestess.

After my wife and I finished the documentary "The Roosevelt's", I found my perfect example for The High Priestess. This is of course 'Eleanor Roosevelt'. She lived in a time when it was very hard for women to be taken seriously in politics.
Eleanor lead through example. She showed us how to be compassionate to our fellow man. She wielded her power not through force, but through conviction. Like the High Priestess, she was calm instead of belligerent. She showed us how to be gracious in public without being precocious. Eleanor spent a great deal of time with people who were seriously injured and destitute. She wanted to give them hope and assistance. She was motivated, like The High Priestess, to leave this world a better place than when she came into it.
I hope I can live up to the lessons of Eleanor Roosevelt-The High Priestess.
