Your soul never asks you to endure anything you can't handle.

When you are in harmonywith yourself, you'll be in harmony with everyone else.

Notice what happens when you choose to embrace rather than reject each feeling that arises within you today.

When you invoke the agent of change called acceptance, you must accept all that you are, all that you've been and all that you will be in the future.

If you admire greatness in another human being, it is your own greatness you are seeing.

It is your holy work, to deeply love, honor and respect the precious self that you are, the soul that only you hold.

In trying to express only those aspects of ourselves that we believe will guarantee us the acceptance of others, we suppress some of our most valuable and interesting features and sentence ourselves to a life of reenacting the same outworn scripts. Reclaiming the parts of ourselves that we have relegated to the shadow is the most reliable path to actualizing all of our human potential. Once befriended, our shadow becomes a divine map that—when properly read and followed—reconnects us to the life we were meant to live and the people we were meant to be.
