People may affect your external self but they cannot change your internal self. Your internal self is spirit, and this energy cannot be changed or destroyed. When you find your external self is injured, confused or afraid, seek inward where all answers and solutions lies. The more you seek inward, the less your external self will be affected by the adversities of life. Seek inward enough, and you’ll be the master you’re destined to be, a spiritual warrior with the infinite intelligence inside bound to thrive. Danny G.
