There are no mistakes, no coincidences; all events are blessings given to us to learn from.

It's not the end of the physical body that should worry us. Rather our concern must be to live while we're alive.

Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself, and know that everything in life has purpose. There are no mistakes, no coincidences, all events are blessings given to us to learn from.

I look for mystery and try to decipher it while knowing it is an impossible task. I look for memory, where Mystery lies.
