I can also say that, in my heart, I firmly believe... Since my youth, before bedtime, kneeling on my bare knees, I prayed to God. I prayed that way until I reached the age of 50. From that time onwards, I pray a bit different, but it doesn't matter, the essence is the same, and I pray to God every day. ~ Nikola Tesla His father was a priest, believing In the light, the love that completes us Once they guessed He’d be a child of darkness, depressed Life would give him opportunities To prove that he was blessed Even the air seemed more alive Knowing this soul who would indeed thrive What he gave our world surely impressed
