Your personal power is not something that is going to reveal itself at some later date. Your power is a result of your decision to reveal it. You are powerful in whatever moment you choose to be.
Marianne WilliamsonAs we give, so shall we receive. Service does not mean self-sacrifice. It means giving the needs of another person the same priority as our own.
Marianne WilliamsonThought is cause: experience is effect. If you don't like the effects in your life, you have to change the nature of your thinking.
Marianne WilliamsonThe people who have achieved more than you, in any area, are only a half step ahead of you in time. Bless them and praise their gifts, and bless and praise your own. The world would be less rich without their contributions, and it would be less rich without yours. There's more than room for everyone; in fact, there's a need for everyone.
Marianne WilliamsonUntil we get to the point where we've had enough of things that hurt and long more than anything for a peaceful love, we are bound to take painful roads. We are destined to play out our frivolous disasters until we declare ourselves finished and done with them. How much pain do we have to suffer before we are sure we want no more? As much, it seems, as we have to until we don't.
