[Guest guest]

Carl Jung

There can be no transforming of darkness into light and of apathy

into movement without emotion.

 

Ludwig Wittenstein

The aspects of a thing that are most important to us are hidden to us

because of their simplicity and familiarity.

 

St John of the Cross

Where there is no love, put love and you will find love.

 

R.D. Laing, The Politics of Experience

What we think is less than what we know;

What we know is less than what we love;

What we love is so much less than what there is.

And to that precise extent we are so much less than what we are.

 

Daniel Goleman

What counts in making a happy relationship is not so much how

compatible you are, but how you deal with incompatibility.

 

Ken Keyes

Love is not a matter of what happens in life. It's a matter of what's

happening in your heart.

 

Herbert Otto

We are all functioning at a small fraction of our capacity to live

fully in its total meaning of loving, caring, creating and

adventuring. Consequently, the actualizing of our potential can

become the most exciting adventure of our lifetime.

 

Lao-Tzu

Time is a created thing. To say 'I don't have time,' is like

saying, 'I don't want to.'

 

Doc Childre and Howard Martin, The HeartMath Solution

You can never get to peace and inner security without first

acknowledging all of the good things in your life. If you're forever

wanting and longing for more without first appreciating things the

way they are, you'll stay in discord.

 

Chinese proverb

Talk does not cook rice.

 

Mark Twain

I am an old man and have a great many troubles, but most of them

never happened.

 

Sara Paddison, The Hidden Power of the Heart

Stress is inner biofeedback, signaling you that frequencies are

fighting within your system. The purpose of stress isn't to hurt you,

but to let you know it's time to go back to the heart and start

loving.

 

Hunter Patch Adams

The most revolutionary act one can commit in our world is to be happy.

 

unknown

Change is inevitable; growth is optional.

 

Carlos Castaneda

We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong.

The amount of work is the same.

 

Daphine Rose Kingma

Today, see if you can stretch your heart and expand your love so that

it touches not only those to whom you can give it easily, but also

those who need it so much.

 

Galileo

You cannot teach people anything. You can only help them discover it

within themselves.

 

Doc Childre

Care is the actualization of love assumed.

 

Albert Einstein, quoted in H Eves Mathematical Circles Adieu (Boston

1977).

A human being is a part of the whole, called by us Universe, a part

limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and

feelings as something separated from the rest - a kind of optical

delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for

us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few

persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this

prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living

creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to

achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is in

itself a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security.

 

Doc Childre

Neutral is a state where you are not jumping ahead too quickly or

moving too slow. Neutral does not mean being inactive, complacent or

passive. It's about a calm poise that allows for new information and

new possibilities to emerge before taking further action. When in

neutral you actually increase your sensitivity and intuitive

intelligence. Neutral is fertile ground for new possibilities to grow

from.

 

Igor Stravinsky

In order to create there must be a dynamic force, and what force is

more potent than love?

 

Albert Schweitzer

I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: the

only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have

sought and found how to serve.

 

Marcus Aurelius

Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with

whom fate brings you together, but do so with all your heart.

 

Doc Childre

Remember, you create your own reality by the choices you make in the

moment. Today, go for more moments of creating 'heaven on earth.'

It's your choice. Efficient decisions from the heart will take you

there.

 

Carl W. Buechner

They may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you

made them feel.
