We avoid the things that we're afraid of because we think there will be dire consequences if we confront them. But the truly dire consequences in our lives come from avoiding things that we need to learn about or discover.
Shakti GawainYou can love other people only to the degree that you've come to love and accept yourself
Shakti GawainWhatever our individual troubles and challenges may be, itโs important to pause every now and then to appreciate all that we have, on every level. We need to literally 'count our blessings,' give thanks for them, allow ourselves to enjoy them, and relish the experience of prosperity we already have.
Shakti GawainOur primary relationship is really with ourselves. Our relationships with other people constantly reflect exactly where we are in the process.
