The more you live by external shoulds, the farther you drift from the power inherent in your own spirit.
Alan CohenSometimes when things seem to be going wrong, they are going right for reasons you are yet to understand.

Alan CohenThe feeling, "this can't be it", is a very powerful form of prayer. It's the agony of the separated self longing for reunion with wholeness. It's the call of your soul urging you to return to your own path and purpose. It's the force of evolution driving you home. Do not try to deny or override your divine discontent. Heed its call. Knowing "this can't be it" implies that somewhere inside you, you DO know what IS it.
