The voice inside your head is not the voice of god. It just sounds like it thinks it is.

Getting where you want to be has everything to do with awareness, and nothing to do with willpower.

Every time we choose safety, we reinforce fear.

When we come to that compassionate awareness that is not afraid of the fear, that can embrace the fear, we are able to heal the wounds of the child and the adult and begin to live the lives we've always wanted to live.

Breathe in a smile; breathe out a chuckle. (You can do it.)

If you had a person in your life treating you the way you treat yourself, you would have gotten rid of them a long time ago.

Fear forces us to spend our lives dealing with it, ostensibly to overcome it. But that is a trick. Only fear (the illusion of separation) would want us to work to be unafraid, precisely because it is not possible for a separate self to be unafraid!
