    The 5 elements are so……..so cleansing for the spirt.
    it is like every time i read or worship them it feels so good like someone has just took all your troubles and sins away forever, or like the gods and goddesses have forgiven you and gave you a clear start!
    And ya thanx for the book recommendation! It is such a good series, i am on “Betrayed” and man is it good! and i thought it was amazing that my name is Zoey Bird and her name is Zoey Redbird!!!!!!! i just think it is the best series i have ever read so far! <3 :)
