Self is the true refuge of self. Understanding this, we can choose to
strengthen our courage, our loving-kindness, and compassion, evoking them in
ourselves through reflection, meditation, attention, and repeated training. We
can also choose to abandon pride, resentment, fear, and contraction when they
arise. -- Buddha
Staying humble is so important. Stand still, and stop the sun.
Read something inspirational, write a gratitude letter, speak with emotion,
imagine experiencing your good, expect leads and follow direction, celebrate
successes and demonstrations, and end each day with gratitude and forgiveness.
Give up control. Choose words wisely. Face fears fearlessly. Dig ditches to
receive leads. Cast the burden. Experience what you want. Don't force
anything. Trust.
If we want to awaken all of humanity, then let us awaken all of ourselves. If
we want to eliminate the suffering in the world, then let us eliminate all
that is dark and negative in ourselves. Truly, the greatest gift we have to
give is that of our own self-transformation. -- Buddha
