Nothing glows brighter than the heart awakened to the unseen light of love that lives within it.
Guy Finley
Image
If we're interested in spiritual things, we gradually realize that what we really need is to understand this nature that seems to be a bottomless basket, because there is no peace in it.

Statistics vary, but in less than seven years there won't be a single cell left in any of our bodies that's the same as it is today. This means that any human being who 'wants' to change is like a mountain river wanting to reach the valley floor. It's a done deal that's what mountain rivers do, and 'changing' should be our first nature.

Real change isn't found in some new way to think about yourself, but in freedom from the need to think about yourself at all.
Guy Finley
Image
In spite of how things may appear to us, we are never trapped by where we are. The trap is always who we are
Guy Finley
Image
Fearlessness comes with the birth of this new understanding: The only reason life changes as it does is to reveal the secret Goodness underlying those same changes.
Guy Finley
Image
Ours is the task of discovering that our true nature has nothing to fear.
Guy Finley
Image
If we only knew how many times our seemingly clever comment cut straight into the heart of the person with whom we have just spoken, it is we who would bleed.
Guy Finley
Image
Everything passes. There is great beauty in this, both in the passing of pain and in the passing of pleasure. When things present themselves to you as permanent, don't believe it.
Guy Finley
Image
Getting stressed and struggling to change the outcome of any past event is like arguing with an echo to make it see your point of view.
Guy Finley
Image
Act on what you love, not from what you fear, and watch how fear fades as love grows.

The only one interested in hearing your sad story is . . . you and even you wish you didn't have to relive it again!
