Image
Honestly admitting what you lost and not trying to rationalize it or push it off is an important step in self-assessment and mindfulness.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The energy strands and bands of our being are linked in a certain way and makes us what we are. It causes us to perceive a certain level of the dream of life. But you can reorder those. That's magic, you see.
