Being Compassionate with Yourself

Being compassionate enough to accommodate our own fears takes courage.

When fear arrives, just to sit with it, if only for a moment, is the ultimate act of kindness to ourselves.

The Good Thing About Pain

The good thing about pain is that it breaks down the walls of your ego, tones back relentless ambitions, and forces you into the present – enhancing your awareness of and appreciation for all of the people in your life. As it is through and with these people, that you can once again experience moments of joy.

Choose Your Relationship

Surround yourself with people who know your worth. You don’t need too many people to be happy. Just a few real ones who appreciate you for exactly who you are.
