COMMITMENT CARD: No matter what is going on, where I am or whom I am with, I put my health and wellbeing first. I notice what my body is telling me. I keep active so my energy can flow. I plan ahead to ensure I have the fuel I need to feel good. I ask for what I want and need…
Sometimes the weight of life can seem heavy. You can either be crushed by it or learn how to carry the load.

However, I’ve been experiencing a very strange dichotomy. In between amplifying Tao’s light, I have been fighting extreme darkness in the sunny state of Florida.
