"...I found that prayer can be extremely powerful...almost like, it's rewriting an agreement that we didn't even know we had... I've prayed lots of times in my life too but I've always found that when I had a prayer that included this kind of rewriting my relationship with life, those are the prayers that seem to have a quick, immediate and powerful responses..." ~ Adyashanti
