Pity those who seek for shepherds, instead of longing for freedom! An encounter with the superior energy is open to anyone but remains far from those who shift responsibility onto others. Our time on this earth is sacred, and we should celebrate every moment. (11)

Looks like a very inspiring read. I will have to check it out.
That is interesting. Lots of brain food.
