Every challenge takes you a little deeper and awakens you again and again. Without the challenges, you probably would go to back to sleep. The challenges keep you awake.
The future never comes. Life is always now.
Knowing yourself as the awareness behind the voice is freedom.
Welcome to the present moment. Here. Now. The only moment there ever is.
You cannot find yourself by going into the past. You can find yourself by coming into the present.
Defining yourself through thought is limiting yourself.
