Nothing can cost you someone you love. The only thing that can cost you your husband is if you believe a thought. That's how you move away from him. That's how the marriage ends. You are one with your husband until you believe the thought that he should look a certain way, he should give you something, he should be something other than what he is. That's how you divorce him. Right then and there you have lost your marriage.

If I had a prayer, it would be this: "God, spare me from the desire for love, approval, or appreciation. Amen."

Spare yourself from seeking love, approval, or appreciation-from anyone. And watch what happens in reality, just for fun.

When you become a lover of what is, the war is over.

Trauma is nothing more than being stuck in what you believe.

You can never make yourself believe that you're loveable, however hard you try, because when the chips are down what you really believe rises to the surface of the mind to replace what you want to believe.

When I turn the thought around - the thought that war, let's say war in Iraq, should stop - the turnaround is the war in myself should stop.
