Within the depths of your being lies a wellspring of universal wisdom. Allow your mind to clear, and find solace in the space of inner stillness. Listen with an open heart, and you shall hear the voice of wisdom emerging from the silence within you. Trust your intuition, for it is the conduit through which profound insights flow, guiding you on your path with clarity and understanding.

"Each one of us, and every action we make, has a quality of aliveness to it, a fragrance or vibrancy uniquely its own. If the outer form of who we are in this life is conveyed by our physical bodies, the inner form - our real beauty and authenticity - is conveyed in the quality of our aliveness. This is where the secret of our being lies. Quality is the innermost, energetic essence of our own life, shining through the outer skin of our being….

Jesus taught that "the Kingdom of Heaven is within you" (Luke 17:21) — not later but lighter. To realize the Kingdom of Heaven here and now (which is what enlightenment means in virtually all the spiritual traditions) is really a matter of developing a kind of X-ray vision that can look right through the physical appearance of things and respond directly to their innermost aliveness and quality."

~ Cynthia Bourgeault, 'The Wisdom Way of Knowing'

“We all dream just to be here, and here we all dream just to be home”.

“And within the soul of every man is found the Christ Principle, striving ever to elevate and lift up the individual toward that realization of the Real Self—and this is what ‘redemption’ and ‘salvation’ really means.”

— William Walker Atkinson

Dolls for everyone! Of everyone.

my mother was genuinely trying to make the argument that people do not fundamentally care about each other’s stories and only care in the ways they can relate their stories to their own experiences and therefore no one should ever try to make new plot lines or share their stories bc it’s all been told before and the only point to you sharing your story is for your own therapy bc no one actually cares and humans aren’t actually pack animals but lone wolves and we keep saying we want to change the world and we could so easily overthrow people in power but bc no one actually cares about each other we don’t do it and just give up. I have never been more certain in my whole life that I am right in saying she could not be more wrong. for the love of god please just share an orange with someone

Make it a habit to ask yourself: What’s going on inside me at this moment? That question will point you in the right direction. But don’t analyze, just watch. Focus your attention within.

-Eckhart Tolle

I'm so confident that if we're being ourselves without violating others, when we look back, even if we don't succeed in the entertainment industry, I still wouldn't regret a thing.

I’ve never regretted being myself." —Mile Phakphum

Things Younger Than Sharks

"—I prayed for strength, and life gave me hard times at my weakest.

—I prayed for happiness, and life gave me sorrowful times.

—I asked for forgiveness, and I received ridicule and blame from others for all my mistakes.

—I prayed to change the world, and ended up becoming the product of the world."

"Life did not punish me, or play a cruel sick joke. Life answered my callings with its own; no strength can come without first being weak, no happiness can be felt without first knowing true sorrow; no forgiveness can arise without first forgiving yourself, and no change can occur to the world without first creating the change in yourself. To seek life, to know life; we must accept death. Experience death in ourselves and in the expectations we perceive life to be. To be born again, one must be annihilated—to experience death in what one perceived themselves to be and realize the masqueraded existence of ones illusion.

To undergo change, we must peer beneath the curtained mirror, as it is ultimately us that can only change ourselves. It is what you do in your circumstances which define who you truly are. What you choose to see at your darkest hour and what you choose to be, life does not punish you but prepares you for what's yet to come."
