There is no other way, all other ways are false paths.”

“Even if somebody was mean to you in school days, you will feel good to meet them after many years. Childhood memories are the roots of your physical self. You feel good even if an enemy waters them.

And often the story repeats ... the enemies of your previous births create more havoc in your life disguised as friends.”
