"What a liberation to realize that the 'voice in my head' is not who I am. Who am I then? The one who sees that."

“Everything you want is on the other side of fear.”  - Jack Canfield

“If you can’t change a situation, change your mind.”

- Dalai Lama

The past can not be Changed, Forgotten, Edited or Erased; It can only be Accepted

No regrets, just lessons. 
No worries, just acceptance. 
No expectations, just gratitude. 
Life is too short.

"When your heart is open, your life will have meaning no matter the circumstances."

"The truth you believe in and cling to makes you unavailable to hear anything new.” 

~Pema Chodron

"Everyone has his own specific vocation or mission in life to carry out a concrete assignment which demands fulfillment.  Therein he cannot be replaced, nor can his life be repeated.  Thus, everyone's task is as unique as is his specific opportunity to implement it."

- Viktor Frankl

"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act."

"When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy."

- Rumi

"We are like islands in the seas, separate on the surface but connected in the deep."

- William James

Humans have many dimensions but time is not as we see time, but rather in lessons that are learned.

We receive and we give.  In return we receive from others.  Joy exists in the balance between giving and receiving.

"There is no physician like cheerful thought for dissipating the ills of the body; there is no comforter to compare with goodwill for dispersing the shadows of grief and sorrow.  To live continually in thoughts of ill will, cynicism, suspicion, and envy is to be confined in a self-made prison hole.  

But to think well of all, to be cheerful with all, to patiently learn to find the good in all - such unselfish thoughts are the very portals of heaven; and to swell day by day in thoughts of peace toward every creature will bring abounding peace to their possessor."

- James Allen

"The more you know the less you need."

"Life never brings me what I expect.  If it did, I wouldn't learn anything.  Inevitably, my experiences must be disappointed, so that I can reach out to a deeper and wider reality."

- Paul Ferrini
