“Think back in your mind to being eight years old and waking up on Christmas morning, the first day of summer vacation, or your birthday. Wow! You just can't wait to greet the day and every moment seems made just for you. Now imagine that, in addition to this magical world, you've got your very own personal grownup who is your protector and your comforter in case of challenges, as well as your teacher, organizer and your servant to make sure each new day is as wonderful as the last one. That's the happy truth that I have found from really asking who I am."

“Since the retreat, I now know that there is no obstacle of any kind that I will not find some way of overcoming"
