Wisdom achieved through the tough road of experience. Let be lesson not a way of life, and know that each relationship will be different with different challenges. Out ultimate purpose here is to learn and experience all that there is. It is a long, tough road. Nirvana lies at the end of it. Be blessed, stay blessed and love and be loved. Love and Light, Nick xx
