While you'll feel compelled to charge forward it's often a gentle step back that will reveal to you where you and what you truly seek.
If we shift as we age toward appreciating everyday pleasures and relationships rather than toward achieving, having, and getting, and if we find this more fulfilling, then why do we take so long to do it? Why do we wait until weβre old? The common view was that these lessons are hard to learn. Living is a kind of skill. The calm and wisdom of old age are achieved over time.
Most of our desires tend to reveal their pettiness a few months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, or even seconds, after they have been fulfilled.
To me success and fulfilment lead in two different directions: one outwardly to the hope of glory, the other inwardly to the guarantee of peace.
Love is its own reward.
Very frequently we only dream and do so because we do not know how to go from a dream to fulfilment
God is the One that gives knowledge and revelation
The soul must first realize that something seems to be missing before it can, one day, know that nothing was missing at all.
