You are limitless, if you choose that! Your freedom comes from letting go. Freedom means empowerment to be, do, go, feel, whatever your heart tells you.

Serve that truly, fully, and you serve All.~ Alma DanielDon't try to be different. Just be good. To be good is different enough.~ Arthur Freed May 28, 2018Integrity is the core of our character.~ L.
