The dream of freedom
Is the dream I seek
To escape these four
Walls which surround me.
To finally be able to dream
And think that I can make
All my dreams come true.
The dream of freedom means
No more threats
No more harassing words
No more “I am not the same.”
No more shame for not being like you.
This dream seems like it’s too far away
But bring me freedom!
Bring me the happiness of the day
When no living human will be ashamed
Of the way they look or feel.
Just bring me the dream of freedom
That one day is almost here.
Let it begin today.

our Mental Energy Sphere is his latest work, and could qualify as a novelette – in that it is less than 20,000 words. Yet, to fully make use of this self-help guide, readers must allow space and time to contemplate what he is saying. Readers will benefit by reading this book slowly, at times when there are no distractions. Each sentence is valuable – no word is wasted, here. Using realistic tools such as deep introspection, evaluation and deduction, Shyam coaxes individuals to find their true happiness. Though Shyam provides the tools, he makes it clear that readers will have to take the steps that will ensure their own satisfaction in life.-
