Whatever we try to control does have control over us and our life.

It's so easy to look around and notice what's wrong. It takes practice to see what's right.

If we are unhappy without a relationship, we'll probably be unhappy with one as well. A relationship doesn't begin our life; a relationship doesn't become our life. A relationship is a continuation of life.

We learn the magical lesson that making the most of what we have turns it into more.

It's hard to give up the self-esteem connected to being codependent and appearing 'right,' which is probably a survival behavior learned from growing up in a crazy family. It feels like you will actually disappear.

Real power comes when we stop holding others responsible for our pain, and we take responsibility for all our feelings.

Waiting time is not wasted time. Something is being worked out - in us, in someone else, in the Universe.
