Who you really are, your True Nature, is no more tied to the kind of person you've been than the wind is tied to the skies through which it moves. Your past is just that, the past, a place within your psyche with no more reality to it than a picture of a castle on a postcard is made from stone. You have a destination far beyond where you find yourself standing today.

If you want light to come into your life, you need to stand where it is shining.

You don't need strength to let go of something. What you really need is understanding.

It's time to break our ties with anything in us that would rather complain about its situation than go to work to change it.

Every one of us lives in a world that is no larger and no smaller than our understanding.

Within the human being there exists both the needful and the needed. You know that the needful exists in you. Your own dissatisfaction tells you so. But you believe the needed is somewhere outside of you.

I am willing to walk toward, and then through, whatever may be seen in the moment as being greater than myself.
