“Why are some people’s lives so hard and painful?” “It goes back to the two-sided coin. The opposite sides are needed to complete the lesson. Some lives seem very difficult, and others seem relatively easy, but both pose different lessons. If a person needs to learn self-respect, they might return and have an abusive relationship with a family member who pushes those boundaries. That situation encourages individuals to stand up for themselves and draw healthy boundaries. But if you come back to learn compassion or empathy, living a life of luxury can cause a person to be complacent, and therefore, they might live their whole life without learning their lesson. An easy life might set a person up for a more challenging lesson than a difficult life. They might get so caught up in their life of luxury that they see no reason for soul searching, and as a result, they never learn their lessons. Imagine an individual driving down the road, seeing a repeating sign—LIFE LESSON . . . LIFE LESSON—but they pay it no mind; they just keep driving! Hopefully, they’ll make a U-turn; otherwise, they’ve missed their exit—their opportunity to learn an important lesson.”

“Honestly, it has been an extraordinary journey . . . so extraordinary that some people questioned whether the things I told them were the truth. Then again, people often question things they haven’t experienced, because they have no reference point.”

“So the particular strengths of the colon are beginning to become clear. A colon is nearly always preceded by a complete sentence, and in its simplest usage it rather theatrically announces what is to come. Like a well-trained magician's assistant, it pauses slightly to give you time to get a bit worried, and then efficiently whisks away the cloth and reveals the trick complete.”
