Patience is not learned in safety.
When resistance is gone, the demons are gone.
Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity.
Welcome the present moment as if you had invited it. Why? Because it is all we ever have.
Fear itself is the vanguard of wisdom
There is no cultivation of patience when your pattern is to just try to seek harmony and smooth everything out. Patience implies willingness to be alive rather than trying to seek harmony.
