            When people ask me how and why I did it, I only have one
            answer- Soul. Not ego, not masochism, not the need to be ac-

            you walk into yourself. Blessingly buffered from the madness
            of the world, your purpose filters out those relationships and
            energies that undermine your expansion. Infused with vital-
            ity and a clarified focus, new pathways of possibility appear
            where before there were obstacles. Life still has its chal-
            lenges, but you interface with them differently, coated in an
            authenticity of purpose that sees through the veils to what
            really matters.
            Don’t lose the faith, wherever you are on the path.
            Keep going…
