dreamer guarantees bright-future
Being fully present is the best guarantee for a bright future.
dark light resistance
Resistance to revelation, resistance to becoming conscious of all that dwells within us - high and low, light and dark - is the anti-change factor. It is also the mainspring of all our psychological fears.
flower cutting order
Trying to change ourselves in order to please others - so that we can feel temporarily whole for having won their approval - is like cutting a flower into pieces so that it will fit into a vase.
letting-go heart agreement
Letting go, at its heart, is an act of agreement with Life.
struggle past views
Getting stressed and struggling to change the outcome of any past event is like arguing with an echo to make it see your point of view.
positive thinking light
If you want light to come into your life, you need to stand where it is shining.
letting-go ideas defeated
See that any time you feel pained or defeated, it is only because you insist on clinging to what doesn't work. Dare to let go and you won't lose a thing except for a punishing idea.
stress compassion kind
Being anxious, or in a painful rush of any kind, kills the possibility of meeting anyone with compassion
heart positivity rewards
The heart at peace is its own reward, needing nothing outside of itself to be fully content.
wisdom differences moments
Make it your moment-to-moment aim to recognize the difference between being aware of your thoughts, and being carried along by them.
silence solitude secret
There is nothing as certain as silence, stillness, and solitude to introduce you to the secrets of yourself.
firsts life-is our-lives
We become what we love. What we put first in our lives is what we receive from life.
true-to-yourself asks untrue
Anyone or anything that asks you to be untrue to yourself has already acted against you.
positivity thinking understanding
Freedom is not overcoming what you think stands in your way. It is understanding that what is in your way is part of the way.
