My concept of successful living is escaping the matrix.

Everyday is another chance to get things right.

I have inner peace. It’s a different person.

Now I may have faith/ to make mountains fall/ But if I lack love/ then I am nothin’ at all.

Don’t be a hard rock when you really are a gem!

See fantasy is what people want, but reality is what they need. And I just retired from the fantasy part.
