John, what if today you could wipe the slate clean, start over, and write your own ticket?
No. Wait. Let's change that. What if every day you could wipe the slate clean, start over, and write your own ticket?
How many days would have to go by before you discovered that your "slate" and your "ticket" have nothing to do with each other? That your past need not live in your future?
Your absolute freedom and total power lie in the present moment.
Tallyho,
The Universe
