“Someone once asked me to define the word ‘power’. I believe that in my life, there are two kinds of powers. One, is me being ‘in power’ to shape my destiny and the other is the "power" to alter other people's lives for the better. I believe that I am in power over my skills and performance, over my thoughts, feelings and decisions. But I am also acutely aware of the fact that I have the power to impact or influence other people, because I am a public figure. Having the power to do so, gives me the responsibility and opportunity to be a role model. In this position, I have the power to represent virtues and values that I think are important for this world, such as honesty, integrity, willingness to help others, gratitude, love and kindness. It is my honor to have the chance to spread these values. Donating an autographed item to someone’s event and supporting good causes is the smallest thing I can do. I am also very thankful that people are supporting my charity events through the auctioning of my paintings or other items. Most importantly, I would like to thank you for helping me to help others by participating in my annual event, the Sandra Gal Charity Challenge in Florida.”
