    So beautiful, and so correct. That's why I get up at 4am lots of times, especially since I fly like 3-6 times per week usually. The silence and peace of mind you have that early, while most people are still asleep is golden. I've stepped out on faith to change careers currently, with no backup plan, to become a successful copywriter and marketing strategist. Having already poured over 500 hours into training, I'm just about ready to go live, and have spent the overnight hours on my website. Getting my first clients might be challenging, but it's too late to turn around now. For me, It's not about survival mode anymore. I want to live.

I am learning Polish, Romanian, Turkish, Czech, Dutch, Ukrainian and Portuguese. Everytime I am alone, I can really learn a lot of grammar and syntax along with phrasal verbs, phrases and sentences. Being alone is a must for me. I can feel I am expanding my brain.Moreover, I like the way this woman speaks. I love her voice and she sounds so positive to me.

    Yes, agree with being silent, quiet being, I do do this activity quit a bit, to organize my thoughts. to think positive, followed by action, thanking gratitude. My X-hus, as I found out was just the other end of this, always loud, always wanting to go out/partying, he also had a big education, that most people would die for, just a phrase. He amounted to nothing. Also, people have include, influences, my in-laws were never encouraging, they hated me. My family was always encouraging, That's why I'am alone, think on my own, independent, just me and God, he is definitely telling me, not to give up, my life is difficult.

    I just found this talk and Terri today You know it really shows me The Lord is the master of time! This video was made about 7 years ago and at the beginning 5 years is mentioned. Where will you be in 5 years etc. and it was funny. I really felt last week the Lord saying to me. I'm giving you 5 years. I told this to my wife and she being quite a discerner said it resonated with her. Now I have been given quite a unique gift from the Lord, especially in the area of composition. But when I was younger I got put off the rock pop world and to be honest music in general, when many people just took my melodies and ideas. Sometimes whole songs for themselves. I'm talking about household names. Anyway, it really discouraged me from carrying on I guess. Anyway now I'm going to really go for it and I think this 5 years is going to be good. Also about a time of reflection I have just recently started doing something called morning pages which is more or less the same thing putting your thoughts down it's really good. There's lots of people here on KZread who talk about morning pages
