#RealSpill Regrann from @chakabars - This is one of the deepest things I have ever read, it's from the book the 7 habits of highly effective people, by Stephen r covey. Make sure you are alone and with no distractions before reading this. In your mind’s eye, see yourself going to the funeral of a loved one. Picture yourself driving to the funeral parlor or chapel, parking the car, and getting out. As you walk inside the building, you notice the flowers, the soft organ music.
