And if I go while you're still here... Know that I still live on,
Vibrating to a different measure,
behind a thin veil you cannot see through.
You will not see me, so you must have faith.
I wait the time when we can soar together again,
both aware of each other.
Until then, live your life to the fullest.
And when you need me, just whisper my name in your heart,
 ....I will be there.

"Be who you are and say what you feel,
because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind."

-Albert Einstein

"Coming to Earth is about traveling away from our home to a foreign land.  Some things seem familiar but most are strange until we get used to them, especially conditions which are unforgiving.  Our real home is a place of Absolute Peace, Total Acceptance and Complete love.  As souls separated from our home we can no longer assume these beautiful features will be present around us.  On Earth we must learn to cope with intolerance, anger and sadness while searching for Joy and love.  We must not lose our integrity along the way, sacrificing goodness for survival and aquiring attitudes either superior or inferior to those around us.  We know that living in an imperfect world will help us to appreciate the true meaning of perfection.  We ask for courage and humility before our journey into another life.  As we grow in awareness so will the quality of our existence.  This is how we are tested.  Passing the test is our destiny."
Exerpt from, "Destiny of Souls", by Micahel Newton, PhD.

"Our lives are not determined by what happens to us, but how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events,and outcomes. It is a catalyst...a spark that creates extraordinary results." -Unknown

Resolve to succeed.  The greatest discovery one can make is that nothing is impossible.

It is attitude, not circumstance, that makes success possible in even the most unlikely circumstance. Unknown
