“We are all the same as there is good in us and there is bad in us. The choice is which do we want to focus on; whatever we focus on amplifies and we tend to see more of it.”

Dr. Wayne Dyer

“We are all assigned a piece of the garden, a corner of the universe that is ours to transform.  Our corner of the universe is our own life–our relationships, our homes, our work, our current circumstances–exactly as they are.  Every situation we find ourselves in is an opportunity, perfectly planned by the Holy Spirit, to teach love instead of fear.  Whatever energy system we find ourselves a part of, it’s our job to heal it–to purify the thought forms by purifying our own.  It’s never really a circumstance that needs to change–it’s we who need to change.  The prayer isn’t for God to change our lives, but rather for Him to change us.

That’s the greatest miracle, and ultimately the only one: that you awaken from the dream of separation and become a different kind of person.  People are constantly concerning themselves with what they do: have I achieved enough, written the greatest screenplay, formed the most powerful company?  But the world will not be saved by another great novel, great movie, or great business venture.  It will only be saved by the appearance of great people.”

“A Return to Love” – Marianne Williamson, p. 75-76.

“What we call love is really a whole spectrum of relating, reaching from the earth to the sky. At the most earthy level, love is sexual attraction. Many of us remain stuck there, because our conditioning has burdened our sexuality with all kinds of expectations and repressions. Actually the biggest “problem” with sexual love is that it never lasts. Only if we accept this fact can we then really celebrate it for what it is – welcome its happening, and say good-bye with gratitude when it’s not.

Then, as we mature, we can begin to experience the love that exists beyond sexuality and honors the unique individuality of the other. We begin to understand that our partner often functions as a mirror, reflecting unseen aspects of our deeper self and supporting us to become whole.

This love is based in freedom, not expectation or need. Its wings take us higher and higher towards the universal love that experiences all as one.”

“When we physically separate from someone we’ve been involved with, that doesn’t mean the relationship is over.  Relationships are eternal.  The ‘separation’ is another chapter in the relationship.  Often, letting go of the old form of the relationship becomes a lesson in pure love much deeper than any that would have been learned had the couple stayed together.  At the so-called end of

relationships, I have sometimes felt that I was falling in love with the person more deeply than I had been before.  What I’ve discovered for myself is that the Holy Spirit sometimes pulls out all the stops at that moment, simply because it takes all the love we’re capable of to let a person go. ‘I love you so much that I can release you to be where you need to be, to go where you need to go.’  This moment in a relationship is not about an ending.  It’s about the ultimate fulfillment of the purpose in any relationship: that we find the meaning of pure love.”

“A Return to Love” – Marianne Williamson, p. 165-166.

“The Course in Miracles tells us:  ‘The Bible says that a deep sleep fell upon Adam, and nowhere is there reference to his waking up.’  So far, there has been no ‘comprehensive reawakening or rebirth.’  We can all contribute to a global rebirth to the extent that we allow ourselves to be awakened from our own personal dream of separation and guilt, to release our own past and accept a new life in the present.  It is only through our own personal awakening that the world can be awakened.  We cannot give what we don’t have.”
