Looking glass in the past.
Deep down inside our heart and soul we carry love and passion for all things good in life that has been instilled in us from our kin folk even from those 100'ds of years before us. There is a line across time that links us all together in so many wonderful mysterious ways. When we take time to calm our minds and reflect on those souls of so long ago we can drum up inside us some smokey ideas and thoughts that make us wonder how we made it this far. Life is a continuous connection to our history that lives forward in us and creates new versions of ourselves and contains a trickle in us of our relatives from many generations in our past. Exercise your mind by harmlessly thinking and imagining dreaming of our ancestors and you'll witness the best qualities of them coming out in you.
