My hole live I was taught to go to church to become a better man. After decades I realised that religion (and a lot of other circumstances) made a hurt soul out of me. From praying every morning and evening I turned into silence. But, since I found this video I hear it every morning before I start my day and every night before I go to sleep. In the end I walk my path with fear, doubt and no strength. But with courage. Thank you for uploading.
