Consider for a moment what you pay attention to all day long. What seems important to you, what do you take for granted and hardly attend to at all? Write it down. Do not judge your answers. Be honest and simple. As you keep track all week long, you'll be amazed at what claims your attention, what you give your precious life force to.
Brenda ShoshannaUnless we base our sense of identity upon the truth of who we are, it is impossible to attain true happiness.
Brenda ShoshannaWe turn pain into suffering by adding on all kinds of beliefs, interpretations and judgments to it.
Brenda ShoshannaThe facts of our lives, when we are able to know them, will free us from the torment we are in. When we can bear reality thoroughly, suffering is over. Pain may exist, but it is only pain. Suffering is what we add to pain.
