My Mantra

My current mantra comes from the poetic song lyrics of an amazing band called dredg -

“All you need is a modest house, in a modest neighborhood, in a modest town where honest people dwell. Making the cleanest energy for the greenest plants to grow, richest soil that is drenched with the freshest rain.Then you should sit in your backyard watch clouds peak over the tallest mountain tops, because they unveil honest opinions about the stars.” – Same Ol’ Road by dredg
