choices knows
Each time that you don't know you are choosing, then of those choices you are not the chooser.
self giving victory
We conquer ourselves by learning patience, for she gives to us our longed for victory only in the surrender of self.
motivational character hard-work
The great ones in life are not those who are handed silver spoons. Their excellence comes from digging into the raw ore of their own character, through hard work, persistence and faith turning whatever they touch into gold.
inspirational love-is about-yourself
Until you can love what the truth would teach you about yourself... then your love is incomplete.
true-to-yourself asks untrue
Anyone or anything that asks you to be untrue to yourself has already acted against you.
reality want down-and
Do the moment-to-moment work of dropping anything that wants to drag you down, and Reality itself will see to it that you rise.
real real-love want
Real love cannot be deceived because it wants nothing outside of itself
being-yourself thinking people
Stop Looking for Permission to Be Yourself. The true individual is no more concerned over what others may think of him or her than is the sun troubled by people complaining that it's too warm, or that it shines too bright!
important facts needs
It's important for us to become aware of the fact that we are needful, for with that awareness also comes the sensing that we couldn't be needful if there weren't something to fulfill the need.
spiritual important desire
In these times - where social appearance is more important than spiritual substance - what has become our longing to change is really the unconscious desire to control not just the shape of our bodies (according to prevailing values) but to dominate our environment as well, regardless of the cost.
spiritual needs realizing
If we're interested in spiritual things, we gradually realize that what we really need is to understand this nature that seems to be a bottomless basket, because there is no peace in it.
running pain ease
Chasing after a pleasure to ease a pain is like running after a breeze to cool you down.
numbers way answers
One way to measure your own fears is to count the number of personal questions you've allowed others to answer for you.
spiritual light consciousness
Every truth ever discovered, each new spiritual light that will ever burn bright has already been seeded in our consciousness.
