Compassion for myself is the most powerful healer of them all.

I must learn to love the fool in me the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries.

Have you considered that if you don't make waves, nobody including yourself will know that you are alive?

Compassion for myself is the most powerful healer of them all.

The question is not whether we are able to change but whether we are changing fast enough.

The process of writing a book is infinitely more important than the book that is completed as a result of the writing, let alone the success or failure that book may have after it is written . . . the book is merely a symbol of the writing. In writing the book, I am living. I am growing. I am tapping myself. I am changing. The process is the product.

Treat yourself at least as well as you treat other people.
