When we think the greatest dangers lie outside us we become trapped. FEAR is the force we must overcome. With fear comes the instinct to fight or flee. It’s like those Chinese finger traps. Let go of fear. Relax into the problem. Be mindful. Wisdom, creativity and patience will free us. Fighting gives fear more power, keeping us imprisoned longer. – Tao & Zen
People have an inherent bias towards negativity. It’s often why when things are going well we still feel as if they could be better. The next time you’re feeling down pause and take a moment to reflect on what you have to be grateful. Maybe it’s your health. Maybe a job or a roof over your head. Could be the love of a pet or just a cup of coffee. Soon enough you’ll realize the world is not conspiring against you. If fact, the truth is probably just the opposite. – Dad
“There were some people who didn’t like my being deeply involved with Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan and disreputable rock ‘n’ rollers. I didn’t care about that because I was doing what I really believed and the response from the followers of those musicians was much more influential than a few people who thought that being associated with rock ‘n’ roll and radical people was inappropriate in a president.” ~ Jimmy Carter
