“The problems that we have are there for a reason. We can never cheat on life. There are no short-cuts. We get what we attract by the way we are at the moment. Our internal state and our life-situation move to be in harmony, reflecting each other. If we don’t learn from our mistakes, we will see the same situations over and over in our life, until we finally change.”
