Stop Looking for Permission to Be Yourself. The true individual is no more concerned over what others may think of him or her than is the sun troubled by people complaining that it's too warm, or that it shines too bright!
Guy Finley

No condition outside ourselves can create a rut or trap us in it. It's impossible.
Guy Finley
Image
All created forms are fractal, as is their purpose, use, and allotted time for existence.
Guy Finley
Image
The past is as powerless to darken the present moment as is a shadow to reach up and drag down the form that casts it.
Guy Finley
Image
Much like the hands of a clock go nowhere fast, anxious thoughts run us round-and-round without taking us anywhere!
Guy Finley
Image
To know that every moment — regardless of how it comes wrapped — is a gift greater than you can give yourself, is to be well on your way to a life without fear.
Guy Finley
Image
