In the other probability, you would have pursued the same goals but you would have done it to prove the reality within physical matter.

I want you to go as far inward for information, inspiration, and data as you are going outward to help others. I want you to enrich your source so that you are not depleted or vulnerable. Because you have abilities, I want you to do this.
