Each Moment Of Every One

We Can Only Begin To Change The World Around Us When We Are Willing To Become A Conscious Part Of All That Is Changing.

Trying To Change Ourselves In Order To Please Others - So That We Can Feel Temporarily Whole For Having Won Their Approval - Is Like Cutting A Flower Into Pieces So That It Will Fit Into A Vase.

The Belief That You Have No Choice But To Keep Suffering Through Whatever Frightens You Is Like Believing You Have To Hold Onto A Scalding Cup So That You Won't Spill Your Coffee!

Once Something Has Outlived Its Usefulness In One Area Of Life, Its Purpose For Being In Existence Is No Longer The Same. The Leaf That Captures A Stream Of Sunlight, And Then Transfers Its Energy To The Tree, Serves One Purpose In The Spring And Summer, And Another Completely Different One Through The Fall And Winter.

If Any Of Those Times You Rushed Around Madly - Trying To Get Somewhere Faster - Had Ever Made Any Real Difference In The Quality Of Your Life... Don't You Think You'd Be Able To Slow Down By Now?
