Listening to your own mind gives you "good reasons" why you should be fearful over unexpected events is just like being friends with someone who thinks it's funny to find new ways to hurt you!

What you don't want to know about yourself wants to be known, which is why it keeps 'showing up' at your door unannounced!

We conquer ourselves by learning patience, for she gives to us our longed for victory only in the surrender of self.

Every truth ever discovered -- each new light that will ever burn bright -- already exists in our consciousness. All we will ever know and share about love, humility, compassion, and sacrifice -- the secrets that will reveal and then resolve old sorrows -- awaits us within ourselves. Hidden in this truth is our great promise, both as individuals and as a race of beings.

The only way to cultivate a quiet mind is by planting seeds of silence.

When you realize no one else on this earth can be like you... that no other soul may know the beauty, sorrow, light and darkness you alone are given to see... then you will, at last, be the fearless individual your Heart of hearts has called you to be.

Instead of always asking yourself how to clear up your mental fog, learn to ask: "Can confusion know anything about clarity?"
