Each time that you don't know you are choosing, then of those choices you are not the chooser.
Guy Finley
Every relationship that we have in our lives - our contact with each person, place, and event - serves a very special, if yet to be realized purpose: They are mirrors that can serve to show us things about ourselves that can be realized in no other way.
Guy Finley
It's important for us to become aware of the fact that we are needful, for with that awareness also comes the sensing that we couldn't be needful if there weren't something to fulfill the need.
Guy Finley
Ours is the task of discovering that our true nature has nothing to fear.
Guy Finley
Each moment of every one of my relationships serves as the secret path to the summit of myself.
Guy Finley

Guy Finley
