Until we question our stressful thoughts, we remain victims of the images in our head.
If I say, if I talk about, 'I want to be enlightened...' it implies a future. And there isn't any.
I was full of rage. My self-esteem was so low that I actually slept on the floor every night, because I didn't believe I deserved a bed to sleep in.
What we believe, we see.
Thinking that what you want equals what's best for you is a dead end.
It's our nature to be free, and until we're stuck in a stressful belief system, we're pretty happy.
