IntroductionFrom the moment we are old enough to realize that we are unique and special individuals there is a gnawing, an everlasting presence and recognition of why we alone are on this earth. This particular knowledge that creates awareness very early in childhood stays with us until the day we die. In the game of life, we can either recognize, embrace and deal with this voice of direction and claim it as our own, or we ignore it allowing a very significant flame to burn out thus removing all illumination of our individual presence on this earth plane. This is not to say we won’t exist but that’s just it, existing versus living is truly a different thing. Rather than capture the magic, the beauty and the special gift we have been granted we choose to allow the influence of others to beat out our flame and follow their path. Once this is done we then have to deal with the damp, dark, depressing unhappiness that beats at our soul.
