From Brandon De Santiago --- To live how we want, And to do what we please. Can sometimes be tough, And not done with great ease. Life works in many ways, Some good and some bad. Which stops us in our tracks, And makes us real mad. We can’t all get, What we want right away. And waiting is needed, To show us the way. So learn the lesson now, That some never learn. Waiting patiently, Will allow you your turn. QUESTION ::: What does "Turning your Will Over" to your HP mean to you? HAVE PATIENCE CUZ 100%…

From Adam —- “I’ve heard this called “being in alignment” before. Didn’t think of it as aligning my ego with my higher power but totally makes sense. I can’t think of specifics but every time I’m kind or compassionate, I’m in alignment. On my recent trip, I always tipped 20-30%. People work hard and many service staff struggles to make ends meet.”
“If I find
10,000 ways
something won’t
work, I haven’t failed.
I am not discouraged,
because every wrong
attempt discarded
is another step
forward.”

“My prejudices of my higher power are anything Christian-based and are inextricably linked to modern Christian thinking. I do not agree with much of it. So this makes it extremely difficult to navigate terminology such as faith, God, and prayer. But I have to define what these mean for me and often use different terms that do not have the same connotations for me.” – Adam
