I foresee a time when each person can truly be a unique entity with his or her own free-flowing style of expression. Each relationship will be a unique connection between two beings, taking its individual form and expression. No stereotypes will be possible because each one of us is so individual when we follow the flow of our own energy.

I learn to accept prosperity instead of exchanging it. If a friend gives me a gift or takes me to lunch, I don’t have to immediately reciprocate. I allow the person to give me the gift. I accept it with joy and pleasure. I may never reciprocate to that person. I may give to someone else. If someone gives me a gift that I can’t use or don’t want, I say: I accept this gift with joy and pleasure and gratitude, and then I pass it on to someone else.
