Turning Inward As A New Dawn Breaks
Wisdom
“By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.”
Confucius
Trust
“I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?”
John Lennon
Faith
“Faith is universal. Our specific methods for understanding it are arbitrary. Some of us pray to Jesus, some of us go to Mecca, some of us study subatomic particles. In the end we are all just searching for truth, that which is greater than ourselves.” -
Dan Brown author Angels and Demons
You Are Worthy
“We give our mistakes too much power. Instead, see a mistake for what it is. It is not the real you… You are more valuable than the opinion others have of you.”
― Gregory Dickow, Soul Cure: How to Heal Your Pain and Discover Your Purpose
Empathy
"Empathy is simply listening, holding space, withholding judgement, emotionally connecting, and communicating that incredibly healing message of 'You're not alone.'"
Brené Brown
Divine Within Us
“The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize
their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize at the center of the
universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that its center is really everywhere, it is within each of us.”
― Black Elk
