RDA: Old Roots

We all have our gifts. Our talents, passions, skills, and drives, that give us our purposes and desires in life. We keep our gifts and maintain energy to support it, but that energy is desired by overruling powers. The abilities we have are only valid to them if we use it to support them. Older powers have found what works for them, and refuse to let innovation come halt their path. Our gifts are taken from us, shamed, or hidden from the world. Predation on our minds come from the shame and isolation felt from using our talents for ourselves. 

We have our gifts, and through the use of them, we can truly become ourselves. What can we do with our gifts? Do our passions inherently threaten current and traditional structures of labor? Is it possible for societal beliefs to terminate someones passions? Do your powers exist to break you away from manipulative hierarchies? These gifts tend to threaten the status quo, but that is the superpower we have - to change the world.
