NUGGETS OF WISDOM - 413

 

  • ·       “To the degree that we can open to our own discomfort, we can open to others’ as well, and vice versa. This is so because in reality there’s no difference between our pain and that of others.” - Pema Chödrön

    ·       “When you become conscious, the first thing you discover is why you stayed unconscious all those years. Being conscious means you really have to feel what you feel, which is frequently very vulnerable and raw.” - Pema Chödrön

    ·       “The interesting thing is that the more willing you are to step out of your comfort zone, the more comfortable you feel in your life. Situations that used to arouse fear and nausea become easier to relax.” - Pema Chödrön

    ·       “Accepting something, by the way, isn’t the same as liking it. To accept a feeling that we habitually associate with discomfort doesn’t mean we immediately turn around and start enjoying it. It means being okay with it as part of the texture of human life.” - Pema Chödrön

    ·       “Don't fear failure so much that you refuse to try new things. The saddest summary of life contains three descriptions: could have, might have and should have.” — Louis E. Boone

    ·       "The psychic and spiritual concomitants of the prayer of faith are immediate, personal, and experiential."

    ·       "No one is a failure who is enjoying life." - William Feather

    ·       “Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.” — Robert Brault

    ·       "God, the Good, is the basic power you express." - Robert Bitzer
