| The first excerpt represents the past or something you must release, and is drawn from The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling: The young mule's teeth snapped, and I heard him say something
about not being afraid of any beefy old bullock in the world. But
the bullocks only clicked their horns together and went on
chewing.
"Now, don't be angry after you've been afraid. That's the
worst kind of cowardice," said the troop-horse. "Anybody can be
forgiven for being scared in the night, I think, if they see
things they don't understand. We've broken out of our pickets,
again and again, four hundred and fifty of us, just because a new
recruit got to telling tales of whip snakes at home in Australia
till we were scared to death of the loose ends of our head-ropes."

The second excerpt represents the present or the deciding factor of the moment, and is drawn from Love and Friendship by Jane Austen: affectionate and amiable Mother." Tears rolled down his cheeks
as he spoke these words--the remembrance of her, who had so
wantonly disgraced the Maternal character and so openly violated
the conjugal Duties, prevented his adding anything farther; he
embraced his sweet Child and after saluting Matilda and Me
hastily broke from us and seating himself in his Chaise, pursued
the road to Aberdeen. Never was there a better young Man! Ah!
how little did he deserve the misfortunes he has experienced in
the Marriage state. So good a Husband to so bad a Wife! for you
know my dear Charlotte that the Worthless Louisa left him, her
Child and reputation a few weeks ago in company with Danvers and
Love and Friendship |
The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from The Virginian by Owen Wister: travellers of the third and last dimension of innocence; and
whenever this is done the food is of the third and last dimension
of awfulness, which the cow-puncher knew as well as anybody.
"So they keep that up here still," I said.
"But what about them?" he repeated. His finger was at a special
item, FROGS' LEGS A LA DELMONICO. "Are they true anywheres?" he
asked And I told him, certainly. I also explained to him almost
Delmonico of New York and about Augustin of Philadelphia.
"There's not a little bit o' use in lyin' to me this mawnin'," he
said, with his engaging smile. "I ain't goin' to awdeh anything's
laigs."
