We can be true to our own basic insight of what we see as true, but we can embrace other people, knowing that they also may have their truth too, and we try to find where we can join together in common effort. – Alfred Bloom, “Beyond Religion “ |

Jealousy Can Guide Us
If we can resist the urge of jealousy and envy to pull us deeply into the fantasies we weave about ourselves and others–‘she has this or that, and I have nothing’–we can see them as signposts that point the way to a truth about ourselves, and use their appearance as an urgent call to look within. – Emma Varvaloucas, “Jealousy & Envy “ |

Gaining Insight from Obstacles
Using meditation or therapy to try to shut down parts of our experience is ultimately counterproductive. We do not have to be afraid of entering unfamiliar territory once we have learned how to hold experience within the gentleness of our own minds. Learning to transform obstacles into objects of meditation provides a much needed bridge between the stillness of the concentrated mind and the movement of real life. – Mark Epstein, “Stopping the Wind” |

Every time life brings you to a crossroads, from the tiniest to the most immense, go toward love, not away from fear. Think of every choice in terms of “What would thrill and delight me?” rather than “What will keep my fear–or the events, people, and things I fear–at bay?”
