may action life-is
It may be true that the unexamined life is not worth living-but neither is the unlived life worth examining.
opportunity compassion law
The universe does not judge us; it only provides consequences and lessons and opportunities to balance and learn through the law of cause and effect. Compassion is the recognition that we are each doing the best we can within the limits of our current beliefs and capacities.
stories lessons life-is
Life is not a private affair. A story and its lessons are only made useful if shared.
courage wall conquer
Your fears are not walls, but hurdles. Courage is not the absence of fear, but the conquering of it.
ladders levels energy
Every positive change - every jump to a higher level of energy and awareness - involves a rite of passage. Each time to ascend to a higher rung on the ladder of personal evolution, we must go through a period of discomfort, of initiation. I have never found an exception.
spiritual important elements
A Zen student asked his roshi the most important element of Zen.The roshi replied, "Attention." "Yes, thank you," the student replied. "But can you tell me the second most important element?"And the roshi replied, "Attention."
race wind sky
The seasons do not push one another; neither do clouds race the wind across the sky. All things happen in their own good time.
running courage may
When we feel stuck, going nowhere-even starting to slip backward-we may actually be backing up to get a running start.
thinking acting
While some of us act without thinking, too many of us think without acting.
stress mind resistance
Stress happens when your mind resists what is...The only problem in your life is your mind's resistance to life as it unfolds.
love happiness peace
There is no path to Happiness. Happiness is the path. There is no path to Love. Love is the path. There is no path to Peace. Peace is the path.
giving-up mean choices
Choice means giving up something you want for something else you want more.
baby self criticism
If babies held the same tendency toward self-criticism as adults, they might never learn to walk or talk. Can you imagine infants stomping, 'Aarggh! Screwed up again!' Fortunately, babies are free of self-criticism. They just keep practicing.
journey soul valleys
So trust the process of your life unfolding, and know with certainty, through the peaks and valleys of your journey, that your soul rests safe and secure in the arms of God.
