A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.

There are wonders in our minds.
Down the stairs, into the depths.
Beyond the nest of secret fears.
Beyond the hidden desires of bed.
In the pure silence,
You’ll meet yourself.
It’s your consciousness.
The mirror that never lies.
With his help,
You’ll learn to hear.
Unblind yourself, see every detail.
Feel every step.
Look into the sky and gasp.
Awaken the potential of beauty,
Your soul, let it fly.
