“Look Within! You are Enough!
The most important event in our lives is our relationship with ourselves and the higher power that we can find within. If only we have the courage to look deeper inside, we will discover this profound connection between our inner power, our consciousness, and the higher power. Once we reach that level, we can never feel alone or sad again. And that's when we empower our unique identity, the inner connection we find within forms the fundamental basis of feeling empowered. So, external events can never shake the strong fundamentals of identity you have identified within.”
