Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we learned here.
Just like a sunbeam can’t separate itself from the sun, and a wave can’t separate itself from the ocean, we can’t separate ourselves from one another. We are all part of a vast sea of love, one indivisible divine mind.
The choice to be used as an instrument of love, right here, right now, is a choice for personal empowerment.
Often we see a couple who has separated or divorced and look with sadness at the ‘failure’ of their relationship. But if both people learned what they were meant to learn, then that relationship was a success.
Our triumph over sorrow is not that we can avoid it but that we can endure it. And therein lies our hope; that in spirit we might become bigger than the problems we face.
Once the light of our awareness is cast on any darkness, then it cannot hide and it cannot remain. Such is the law of consciousness.
Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth.

Something very beautiful happens to people when their world’s fallen apart: a humility, a nobility, a higher intelligence emerges at just the point when our knees hit the floor.
Until we have met the monsters in ourselves, we keep trying to slay them in the outer world. And we find that we cannot. For all darkness in the world stems from darkness in the heart. And it is there that we must do our work.
Don’t be concerned that things appear to be falling apart: this has to happen in order for something new and wonderful to emerge.
Enlightenment is the only real antidote to the world’s despair.
Withholding love is a form of self-sabotage, as what we withhold from others we are withholding from ourselves.
No matter what the problem, a miracle can solve it. Remember to ask for one...
Trying to suppress or eradicate symptoms on the physical level can be extremely important, but there’s more to healing than that; dealing with psychological, emotional and spiritual issues involved in treating sickness is equally important.
Envision possibility. Don’t worry who else believes in it; the universe is only looking for instructions from you.
We think that because we dwell inside our bodies that we are separate from other people who dwell inside theirs.
Whether we love, or close our hearts to love, is a mental choice we make, every moment of every day.
