Letting go of the past means that you can enjoy the dream that is happening right now.
Miguel Angel RuizEverything you think about yourself, everything you believe about yourself, is because you learned it.
Miguel Angel Ruiz...What you are is a force--a force that makes it possible for your body to live, a force that makes it possible for your whole mind to dream...You are life
Miguel Angel RuizWhatever happens around you, don't take it personally... Nothing other people do is because of you. It is because of themselves.
Miguel Angel RuizIf you live in a past dream, you don't enjoy what is happening right now because you will always wish it to be different than it is. There is no time to miss anyone or anything because you are alive. Not enjoying what is happening right now is living in the past and being only half alive. This leads to self pity, suffering and tears.
