Resistance is a result of our mind being attached to having things a certain way rather than the way they actually are. It is a mental habit of the ego that we need to become aware of in order to see the consequences. Only then can we see into our thought system and realize that nothing could be more of a waste of time than to resist and complain about what already is.

Freedom rests on finding the meaning and lessons even in our greatest pain.

There is never a circumstance, no matter how catastrophic, that also does not hold within it an opportunity to better things, to better yourself. Every moment brings with it an opportunity to love, to forgive, to grow beyond your shortcomings.

Most of us, if we are truly honest with ourselves, have an ever-evolving and ever-growing list of what we think we must change in order to be at peace or to be happy.

Becoming less focused on the past and future and not resisting the moment is how to overcome fear, physical pain, and all suffering.

You can learn from your health challenge what is most important and become a better human being.

No matter how sick your body is, extending Love will reduce your suffering and aid in healing.
