Let things that enter your life wake you up. To do this be open, be curious, accept everything that comes along and let it teach you what it will. You can try to do everything to make your world perfect, but the old stuff always appears until you have learned your lesson.
There is a source of power within you. Although external circumstances may occasionally hamper you, true movement comes from within yourself. This power source is latent within you, but you can learn to tap into it. Finding this power is great joy, deciding how to direct it is a great responsibility.
Hope and fear are both phantoms that arise from thinking about yourself. When we don’t see the self as self what do we have to fear? See the world as yourself, treat the world as yourself, love the world as yourself, have faith in the way things are; then you can care for all things.
What is called common good may not always serve well. Unity may be cohesion for society, but unity of what? Dedicated to what? Shared life should be held together by choices, not by decree. To be true to yourself, do not give up too much and certainly not your center.
Quote: Happiness is feeling good about yourself, and being contented with what you have.
