Richard BachWe all know those who draw their boundaries carefully and say, "I'm only human. Nobody's perfect. I accept my limitations."

I am absolutely convinced that the world around us is a world of appearances and anyone who wants to can practice it. Change your thought and your environment will change.

Richard Bach
