What perhaps you don't even know till now.

Charles BukowskiAs long as we're caught up in always looking for certainty and happiness, rather than honoring the taste and smell and quality of exactly what is happening, as long as we're always running from discomfort, we're going to be caught in a cycle of unhappiness and discomfort, and we will feel weaker and weaker. This way of seeing helps us develop inner strength. And what's especially encouraging is the view that inner strength is available to us at just the moment when we think that we've hit the bottom, when things are at their worst.

Lawrence O'DonnellI have thought briefly about getting caught in rock slides or falling from a rock face.

I get so caught up in fighting for things that are important to me that it pushes me through fear and doubt.
