Guy Finley
Image
It's a paradox of the true spiritual path, but the more conscious we become of what limits us, the more limitless becomes our life.

Nothing in the universe can stop you from letting go and starting over.
Guy Finley
Image
Who you really are, your True Nature, is no more tied to the kind of person you've been than the wind is tied to the skies through which it moves.
Guy Finley

Trying to “fix” the people in your life that cause you pain is like massaging your shoes because your feet ache.
Guy Finley
