Guy's Classroom Talks

Classroom Talk: 7/2/2004 - The secret purpose of that self-loathing nature in us -- that wants us to suffer today for what we could not do yesterday -- is not there to help us make straight our mistakes, but rather to ensure that we waste the rest of our days struggling to escape the ache of useless regrets.

Classroom Talk: 4/23/2004 - Painful negative assumptions that pop up in us about ourselves, that darken our aspirations for a higher, happier life, are much like thorns on the stem of a fragrant rose: the only power they have to hurt us is when we mistakenly close our hand around them.
