The present moment is all we have. Yes, we have plans and goals, a vision for tomorrow. But now is the only time we possess. And it is enough.


We can clear our mind of the residue of yesterday. We can clear our mind of fears of tomorrow. We can be present, now. We can make ourselves available to this moment, this day. It is by being fully present now that we reach the fullness of tomorrow.


Have no fear, child, a voice whispers. Have no regrets. Relinquish your resentments. Let Me take your pain. All you have is the present moment. Be still. Be here Trust


All you have is now. It is enough.


Today, I will affirm that all is well around me, when all is well within.

None of us is given a lifetime. We're given one day at a time. We're given this day. Don't spend today worrying about whether the next one's going to come or where it's going to lead. The joy is in not missing a second of today, in the depth and the power of this very moment.


Mary Manin Morrissey





A journey alone is really the only way to connect with yourself. You rely and trust only on your own instincts. You pay more attention to your gut feelings. You are not following another's advice or opinions, you do not have the false security of others around you. You are not trusting another to keep you safe and out of harms way. Nothing and no one can give you the confidence and courage to trust yourself, to live your life fearlessly. Only your own connection to spirit can do that.



Barbara Furlotte





Forgiveness is the way to true health and happiness. By not judging, we release the past and let go of our fears of the future. In so doing, we come to see that everyone is our teacher and that every circumstance is an opportunity for growth in happiness, peace and love.


Gerald G. Jampolsky





"A child's world is fresh and new and beautiful, full of wonder and excitement. It is our misfortune that for most of us that clear-eyed vision, that true instinct for what is beautiful and awe-inspiring, is dimmed and even lost before we reach adulthood."



Rachel Carson





We can stop waiting for others to give us what we need and take responsibility for ourselves. When we do, the gates to freedom will swing wide. Walk through.


Melody Beattie





Once we know people's stories, we feel compassion instead of judgment.
Today, practice remembering that everyone has a story.


Mary Manin Morrissey



Truth is not learned, it is recognized. The divine truth in us recognizes itself.

There are very few human beings who receive the truth, complete and staggering, by instant illumination. Most of them acquire it fragment by fragment, on a small scale, by successive developments, cellularly, like a laborious mosaic.

Anais Nin


What you are aware of you are in control of; what you are not aware of is in control of you.

Anthony DeMello


The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.
