Every choice we make contains the energy of either faith or fear, and the outcome of every decision reflects to some extent that faith or fear. This dynamic of choice guarantees that we cannot run away from ourselves or our decisions.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do. I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering.

Spiritual connection does not mean romance

It's two things: it's totally impersonal and it's totally personal, simultaneously. That's the nature of the mystical experience of life. Everything about life is impersonal, but you have a personal experience. And the bridge between the personal and the impersonal is called prayer.

Managing the power of choice, with all its creative and spiritual implications, is the essence of the human experience. All spiritual teachings are directed toward inspiring us to recognize that the power to make choices is the dynamic that converts our spirits into matter, our words into flesh. Choice is the process of creation itself.

Follow your pain as if it were a candle in the night, leading you to a place of decision.

Knowing that every single day is so filled with potential - you cannot wait for life to give you anything. You have no right to feel entitled. You are not entitled to anything.
