There are few surer ways to become disliked by men than to perform well where they have performed poorly.
The only way is to teach with love, which requires looking beyond what seems, and remembering we create with our judgements.
Your message means less than the way the message is delivered, because in actuality, the way the message is delivered, IS the message.
Taking care of yourself is the most powerful way to begin to take care of others.
The art of surrender is the art of getting out of the way of your own growth.
Some people are so addicted to their misery that they will destroy anything that gets in the way of their fix.
When trying to teach someone a boundary, they learn less from the enforcement of the boundary and more from the way the boundary was established.
Through spiritual maturity you will see new ways to avoid unnecessary suffering; wiser ways to endure unavoidable hardships with grace, and opportunities to turn your pain into lessons of service and healing for others. Your hard journey has had a great purpose! Your pain was always a part of a plan to open your heart to love. Have faith. A miracle is happening in your life; the miracle of pain is transforming you to your highest self.
I was advocating for world peace, but I was waging a violent war against my own body. I was speaking about poverty and starvation, but I was eating more than my fair share. I was a hypocrite.
My self-esteem had been crushed through years of childhood bullying and serious abuses, which would take me decades to overcome.
The realities of the world seldom measure up to the sublime designs of human imagination.
One column of truth cannot hold an institution of ideas from falling into ignorance. It is wiser that a person of prudence and purpose save his strength for battles that can be won.
One person really can make a difference. Each person is the revolution.
Every symbol, word, concept, discipline and field is only a temporary rest stop on the highway of discovery.
