Break Free from Stress: Embrace Your Eternal Self

Break Free from Stress: Embrace Your Eternal SelfThe Angels – Try for a moment to imagine an existence without end. All your goals now would be replaced with new ones… for eternity. All plans you make now will be fulfilled or replaced by others. All experiences you have would satisfy or not, and new desires would arise. All you have lost will be found.
