Don't expect the future to look like the past. Clear away expectations, and let yourself picture a wild, grand new world.

Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle.

You are born to be magical, gorgeous and beautiful inside and out. So express your beauty and fear not.

Terror is trump. Common, brutal suppression methods are considered as sanctified laws. "Old Fighters" are holy ones. From the district leader upwards there are only Gods!

It's to try to spread the Word of God - the true meaning of Christmas. And that is more important than anything else.
