Our Quagmire

Laws can’t save us. No one is coming to save us. We have to save ourselves. The keys to our liberation lies within us. Communication with our inner being is crucial for our freedom. If we don’t find time for introspection we will forever be wearing the invisible chains we are tethered to. It doesn’t […]

Imitation

We have to stop walking the path of imitation and accept the fact that we are perfectly crafted. There is no need for enhancements, we are perfect the way we are. We will continue to be the living dead until we take the blinders off and reimagine a life that is full of acceptance and […]
