• You could sit on top of a mountain praying for hours a day and still not make it if you had no love in your heart. You could spend your life feeding the poor and still not make it because your karma required you to bear and nurture children. The path home to God is different for every person. Only communion with your Higher Self will reveal your path to you.

  Elizabeth Clare Prophet

• Many people think there's nothing they can do to change their karma - it's preordained so why bother trying to change their situation? This is what scares people.

We can - in the blink of an eye - make decisions that will shape our futures and transform the parts of our lives that are causing us unhappiness.

I scrambled the jets, took off and we bombed our target. I think it's gone well.
