Peace of mind comes from not wanting to change other, but by simply accepting them as they are. True acceptance is always without demands and expectations.
Gerald JampolskyWhen we think we have been hurt by someone in the past, we build up defenses to protect ourselves from being hurt in the future. So the fearful past causes a fearful future and the past and future become one. We cannot love when we feel fear.... When we release the fearful past and forgive everyone, we will experience total love and oneness with all.
Gerald JampolskyListening with undivided attention and unconditional love Is perhaps the greatest gift we can extend to others.
Gerald JampolskyMore and more people are beginning to feel that there must be another way of thinking, perceiving, and acting. And perhaps the beginning of another way of looking at the world is to re-evaluate all of our beliefs. It is, after all, our beliefs that determine what we are, experience, and expect. When we are willing to take a new look at our own beliefs, we then have an opportunity to begin rediscovering who and what we are and to redetermine our true purpose on Earth.
