We can always choose to perceive things differently. You can focus on what's wrong in your life, or you can focus on what's right.
Until we have met the monsters in ourselves we will keep trying to slay them in the outer world. For all darkness in the world stems from darkness in the heart. And it is there we must do our work.
The purpose of our lives is to give birth to that which is within us.
The more we ignore our childhood wounds, the more they faster and grow.
Pain can burn you up and destroy you, or burn you up and redeem you.
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
In every community there is work to be done. In every nation, there are wounds to heal. In every heart there is the power to do it.
Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we learned here. The spiritual journey is the relinquishment, or unlearning, of fear and the acceptance of love back into our hearts.
It takes courage… to endure the sharp pains of self-discovery rather than choose to take the dull pain of unconciousness that would last the rest of our lives.
Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognise how good things really are.
In every heart there is an inner room where we can hold our greatest tressures and our deepest pain.
Hatred is the spiritual malignacny of our species, and like any other form of cancer, does it's most terrible work not outwardly, but from within us.
Ego says, "Once everything falls into place, I'll feel peace." Spirit says, "Find your peace, and then everything will fall into place."
Each of us has a unique part to play in the healing of the world.
