Gratitude is the single greatest treasure I will take with me from this experience.

Tune out the naysayers, tune into your own courage, and take a bold step toward the passion-filled life you really want.

The key is not to worry about being successful, but to instead to work toward being significant - and the success will naturally follow.

Don?t back down just to keep the peace. Standing up for your beliefs builds self-confidence and self-esteem.

I urge you to pursue preserving your personal history to allow your children and grandchildren to know who you were as a child and what your hopes and dreams were.

Walk through life eager and open to self-improvemen t and that which is going to best help you evolve, because that's really why we're here - to evolve as human beings.

So, that is my final lesson from the universe - you just do what you need to do, and stay on track.
