| The first excerpt represents the past or something you must release, and is drawn from Faraday as a Discoverer by John Tyndall: enlarged by his imagination. I am acquainted with no mind whose
power and suddenness of expansion at the touch of new physical truth
could be ranked with his. Sometimes I have compared the action of
his experiments on his mind to that of highly combustible matter
thrown into a furnace; every fresh entry of fact was accompanied by
the immediate development of light and heat. The light, which was
intellectual, enabled him to see far beyond the boundaries of the
fact itself, and the heat, which was emotional, urged him to the
conquest of this newly-revealed domain. But though the force of his

The second excerpt represents the present or the deciding factor of the moment, and is drawn from U. S. Project Trinity Report by Carl Maag and Steve Rohrer: The winds blew the cloud resulting from the detonation to the
northeast. From 16 July 1945 through 1946, about 1,000 military and
civilian personnel took part in Project TRINITY or visited the test
site. The location of the test site and its major installations are
shown in the accompanying figures.
Military and Scientific Activities
All participants in Project TRINITY, both military and civilian, were
under the authority of the MED. No military exercises were conducted.
The Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory (LASL), which was staffed and
administered by the University of California (under contract to the
MED), conducted diagnostic experiments. Civilian and military

The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from Father Sergius by Leo Tolstoy: silently passed into the back cell and fastened the door.
'Forgive me!' she said. 'How can I atone for my sin?'
'Go away.'
'Let me tie up your hand.'
'Go away from here.'
She dressed hurriedly and silently, and when ready sat waiting in
her furs. The sledge-bells were heard outside.
'Father Sergius, forgive me!'
'Go away. God will forgive.'
'Father Sergius! I will change my life. Do not forsake me!'
'Go away.'
