Our goal is to enjoy, not to achieve perfection

Whatever the method, the purpose of quieting the mind is always the same... to step out of you own way and touch a Universal Oneness with all things.

Most of us do not 'sculpt' our lives. We accept what comes our way, then we gripe about it.

We all create expectations of what we would like to happen after a decision is made. The picture in our mind's eye might have served a valuable function in helping to make a decision. But once the decision is made, let the picture go. Since you can't control the future, the picture can create unhappiness if it's not fulfilled. Disappointment may make you miss the good that can come out of every situation in which you find yourself.

The source of our love comes from within. No one out there is that source. It makes sense to go to the source.

You're not a failure if you don't make it. You're a success because you tried.

Knowing that we can make a difference in this world is a great motivator. How can we know this and not be involved?
