Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually who are you not to be? . . . . Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you . . . . It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone. And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

It is a most painful procedure to tear off those veils, but each step forward in psychological development means just that, the tearing off of a new veil. We are like onions with many skins, and we have to peel ourselves again and again to get to the real core.

Sometimes you just need to talk about something, not to get sympathy or help, but just to kill its power by allowing the truth of things to hit the air.

In your life, you meet people. Some you never think about again. Some, you wonder what happened to them. There are some that you wonder if they ever think about you. And then there are some you wish you never had to think about again. But you do.

I didn’t wake up today excited about busying myself with doing or getting more. I woke up today excited about simplifying my life so that I can do less and live more.

Solitude and loneliness fall on opposite ends of a spectrum. There's a wide difference between being alone and being lonely.

If you are perfect, you cannot be complete, because you leave out all the imperfections of your nature. If you are complete, you cannot be perfect, for being complete means that you contain good and evil, right and wrong, hope and despair. So perhaps it is better to be content with something less than perfection and something less than completion. Perhaps we need to be more willing to accept life as it comes.

The only difference between an extraordinary life and an ordinary one is the extraordinary pleasures you find in ordinary things.

A gentle reminder: do not let your empathy for others stop you from maintaining the barriers that you set to protect yourself.

May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are.

Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us . . . .
