When you’re sitting and pondering what the meaning of this life might be and you can’t quite figure it out, don’t fret, don’t worry, don’t doubt…just breathe… When your direction seems off track and you can’t seem to find the right path, don’t struggle, don’t fear, don’t panic…just breathe… When the world feels like it

Our Beliefs Become Our Destiny – Gandhi
