During my years as the manager of a holistic center in central Mexico I learned a great deal about human nature, not so much from the practitioners themselves but from my observations of those who came through its doors, as well as from my interactions with them.

Within the past couple of months I have been contacted by several people, all of whom had questions about curses. Anytime a topic comes up constantly I know that Satan is 'nudging' me to write about it, so here I am. May this messages reach those whom they're destined to.

Darkness is not evil. Light is not necessarily 'good'. Remember that light can also blind you.
