Every musician I have ever heard has influenced me. I often find I emulate micro-aspects of an artist, and combine it to form something new and unique.
When a relationship has served its purpose, there is no use to try to hang onto it.
What was, was. What is, is. Be true to what is, rather than clinging to an old form. Then you will create new meaningful relationships that match who you are and what you want.
If you can’t be with the one you love, be the one you love.
Be grateful, then, that you are sick and tired of being sick and tired, or fed up with what is not feeding you. Toleration of dysfunction only keeps it in force. Refuse to put up with what is not working, and you will find your way to your perfect place in the Great Design.
How do I contribute to end the suffering of humanity?” is the most important question you will ever ask. The answer to that question begins with your answer to the question, “How do I end my own suffering?” If you can find your own way out of pain, you will know how to help other people out of their pain. Until then your efforts are hollow.
Temporary discomfort pales in the face of long-term awakening.
The future you expect is a projection of your beliefs about the past. The future will be like the past only if you keep thinking the same thoughts.
You cannot control the behavior of others, and you cannot dictate the choices they make. But you have total control over which aspects of them you are selecting to magnify in your experience. This is where your true authority lives. “My Father gives all power unto me.
If you simply love yourself, just as you are, right where you are, you will become an unstoppable force for healing and transformation.
Mediocrity does not befit your true magnitude.
You are not here to work. You are here to awaken.
Knowledge is power, but wisdom is peace.
You are here to thrive as a soul. It will be a great day when we train children to pass SQ – spiritual quotient – tests. Then we will be teaching genuine intelligence that will advance humanity in the most important way.
When you live from your divine nature, suffering will fall away. You will no longer see life as a jungle or live in a realm where survival is at stake. You don’t deserve to suffer. No one does.
All disease is a denial of love, and all denial of love is fear.
The thought that your life is moving too slowly is a sign that you are moving too fast. Rushing never improves the quality of our life or the results we seek; to the contrary, it muddies our vision and causes us to make errors that cost us twice as much time and energy to repair.
Gratitude, like faith, is a muscle. The more you use it, the stronger it grows, and the more power you have to use it on your behalf.
To be grateful is to find blessings in everything. This is the most powerful attitude to adopt, for there are blessings in everything.
Discontent is the initial motivation to becoming content. Let restlessness propel you to your right place. Your experience of “not it” amplifies your intention to find “it,” and you surely will.
If God puts yearning in your heart, that same God will give you the guidance and means to fulfill it.
