Love how this flows—short but really punchy! That last line sticks with you. Feels classy and a little mysterious. Nicely done, Gershon!

Aha! I knew it was mysterious! Thanks for the confirmation, Rowena.

For sure, see it, next feel it mentally -- then will it into physical being. That is true Free Will. Free Will is not simply making choices. You have it in the palms of your creative hands, needed only to be set free. Great read!
