Wanting others to love you, you give away your heart. Wanting others to see you, you give away your eyes.
Awakening is not something you achieve. It is something you relax into.
Every moment you are present, there is a little less darkness in our world.
If you can see it, hear it, feel it, taste it, touch it, or smell it, you can be present with it. It is of the present moment, and so it brings to you the opportunity to be present with it.
Everything that happens is designed to awaken us. Everything.
The fact that we are aware of ourselves is both our greatest curse and also our greatest blessing.
