Until you make peace with your difficult memories, that pain will continue to bleed into your current and future experiences.
Every choice you make supersedes and overrides every other choice you make.
Wherever your gift is, that's where it's going to be your greatest challenge.
Once you get clear on who you are, what you do, and what you have been CALLED to do, you become powerful.
A man who is not accountable to anyone is a danger to himself
We voluntary participate in things that we know are causing us harm because we believe we're powerless to do anything about it.
Dear God, Please untie the nots. All of the can nots, should nots, may nots and have nots. Please erase from my mind the thoughts that I am not good enough.
Sometimes on the journey, you step in dog poop. But you don't let the whole journey be about the fact that your shoe got poop on it.
I believe that the only thing that will dispel the darkness is for the light to come on. And the lights are coming on. Here, there. People are eating more vegetables, living green, taking in and saving animals. All of that is the light coming on.
The beloved is one who nurtures you, trusts you, supports you, encourages you, loves you without conditions. That's you.
Mistakes are lessons that you need to learn!
Love is what you are, not what you give or get!
What we must realize is that we cannot see everything. We do not know everything. More important, we must understand that it is impossible for us to control anything. The process of life is a spiritual one, governed by invisible, intangible spiritual laws and principles.
I learned that telling the truth was a big part of loving yourself.
