If only you knew who you really were you would be fearless and love yourself with a grand passion! You are a unique shard of God, the Universe, the whole or whatever label you would like to call it. No one can take your place and without you endless synchronicity and evolution would not happen. You are so powerful that just by walking down the street you can change someone's life forever. ↗

When a sense of dissatisfaction persists, that means it was placed there by God for one purpose only: you need to change everything and move forward. ↗
