There is hope for Kiism. To a lot of people the idea sounds like a pipe dream, however, this weekend 80 students gathered together and proved that the spirit that is needed to make the changes that Kiism embodies is alive, well, and energetic. I was honored this past weekend to participate in a Global Leadership Retreat. This retreat gathered together students studying in the U.S. from all over the world, and focused their desire to be the future leaders, into multi-cultural understanding, and how to create a more sustainable planet. One aspect that was brought up numerous times, in individual conversations and in workshops, was humanitarianism. During a lecture from a most prestigious doctor, I finally found a name to the goal of Kiism, “Empathetic Motivation.” I hope that most of the students came into, and left with, this being what drives them. I have tremendous hope for the future of the world, if the leaders of tomorrow are the students I met this weekend.
