This, from one of my energy apprentices on her recent test:

What is energy?  That is an interesting question, one that I have thought about over the three years that I have been doing energy work, but one which I don’t think that I ever really have an answer.  In Anodea Judith’s Eastern Body, Western Mind, she describes energy as “the evolutionary life force within each person. In my patch of the legal world, “energy” is a commodity, such as oil, natural gas and electricity that is bought and sold.  What is similar between the two types of energy that I just mentioned is that they are the inputs that are necessary to drive machineries, whether it is the human body or a gigantic power plant.  In other words, energy is what “makes things work.”
