All breakdowns in our relationships have to do with what we unknowingly demand from them instead of understanding what they are for; so that as we come to realize the truth of our relationships, the same truth sets us free from hurting one another in moments of disappointment.
If we would spend but a hundredth of our time reflecting upon where we have been wrong that is spent churning over how others have done wrong to us, we could soon free ourselves of that terrible self-torment known as the need to be "in the right."...
The endless -- and futile effort -- to complete yourself in a time to come is as hopeless as trying to free yourself from a pressing hunger pain by...
Though difficult to see because of our social and religious conditioning that compels us to seek security outside of us, in a time to come, or in some god that’s imagined dwelling somewhere above us, nevertheless, it is possible to awaken from this dream and realize the truth that sets us free...
