From this moment on we share the world; The more we give, the more we love, the more we grow. The spirit of imagination can lead us through the dark; The more we see, the more we try, the more we show. The evidence of our confusion, life has left its mark; The more we fear, the more we lie, the more we hide. As we walk into tomorrow (turning away from the path we know) Holding the future with our hands (we carry the weight of the world we go) Its up to you and I, we hold the key; we hold the answers. All our thoughts of doubt and fear are leaving one by one The more we live, the more we learn, the more we know. For each of us the road is clear and life has just begun; The more we give, the more we love, the more we grow. Its time to reach the goals we've set for ourselves; The more we fear, the more we lie, the more we hide. All we need is just to believe in ourselves; We face the truth; we see it clear, with no disguise. Cast away our doubt and sorrow (turning away from the past we know) The universe at our command (conserving the fate of the world we grow) Together you and I, we hold the key to all the answers. Let go...Let go…Let go…Let go…Let go iv What things so ever ye desire, when ye pray believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. (Mark 11:24) Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. (Philippians 4:8) But he who, with strong body serving mind, Gives up his power to worthy work, Not seeking gain, Arjuna! Such an one Is honourable. Do thine alloted task! (The Bhagavad Gita) With love and prayer, I dedicate this thesis to You v LEMBAR PERYATAAN PERSETUJUAN PUBLIKASI KARYA ILMIAH UNTUK KEPENTINGAN AKADEMIS Yang bertanda tangan di bawah ini, saya mahasiswa Universitas Sanata Dharma: Nama : FX.
