Anything you avoid in life will come back, over and over again, until you’re willing to face it—to look deeply into its true nature.

Adyashanti, The End of Your World (via purplebuddhaproject)

The Tao is infinite, eternal. Why is it eternal? It was never born; thus it can never die. Why is it infinite? It has no desires for itself; thus it is present for all beings.   The Master stays behind; that is why she is ahead. She is detached from all things; that is why she is one with them. Because she has let go of herself, she is perfectly fulfilled.

Lao Tzu - (Tao Te Ching, chapter 7, translation by Stephen Mitchell)

The woman who does not require validation from anyone is the most feared individual on the planet.

Have you ever felt so at one with the world, with the universe, with everything that is, that you were overcome with love? That is reality. That is the truth.

 Richard Bach (via thehappyrealityproject)

The problem that most people have is that they think it’s normal to do things that make them feel unhappy. They think it’s normal to work at places that make them feel drained, to do things that make them feel drained, and communicate with people that make them feel drained. I feel like if every single person decided to give that up and choose what makes them feel good, our entire world and society would drastically change. And instead of chaos, like most people would expect, there would be joy, peace, and freedom.

When you take a chance at doing what makes you happy, the entire Universe conspires to help you.
