Read MoreA Frightening Conclusion
Reading at Waimea practice 07/20/09 man-sun-and-sea by linaji I have come to a frightening conclusionThat I am the decisive element.. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration.
