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.

In spite of how things may appear to us, we are never trapped by where we are. The trap is always who we are

Chasing after a pleasure to ease a pain is like running after a breeze to cool you down.

There is nothing as certain as silence, stillness, and solitude to introduce you to the secrets of yourself.

Each time that you don't know you are choosing, then of those choices you are not the chooser.

Any form of measuring yourself by the unkind action of another towards you is like looking into a badly fractured mirror... and then blaming yourself for the shattered image you see therein.

To be more aware, we need only listen for and let go of the thoughts which steal our attention.
