Re: *Living Wide Awake And Conscious*

[Guest guest]

Dear ,

Always inspiring, that is what you are to me and also a

beautiful and happy soul! You make me smile, think wonderful

thoughts, learn and just BE. Thank you for being YOU! This was so

perfect! It is true, I do wish to live awake and think authentically

and speak authentically for I feel it is so much more healthy than

those icky negative thoughts! Thank you, my sister for sharing this

with us! Love and light, LUNA
