Because all my life I've learned to suffer in silence - Athena

Surrendering completely to love, be it human or divine, means giving up everything, including our own well-being or our ability to make decisions. It means loving in the deepest sense of the word. The truth is that we don't want to be saved in the way God has chosen; we want to keep absolute control over our every step, to be fully conscious of our decisions, to be capable of choosing the object of our devotion.

The world is changed by your example, not by your opinion.

You have two choices: to control your mind or to let your mind control you.

The day will come when those knocking at the door will see it open; those who ask will receive; those who weep will be consoled.

Don't forget that everything you deal with is only one thing and nothing else.

Attacking or fleeing are part of the struggle; being paralysed by fear is not.
