“Life really wants you to learn a few lessons, and it will not stop trying to teach you until you learn. What has life been trying to teach you? Life wants you to have gratitude for the gift of living. Treasure every second. Life wants you to know yourself, be yourself, and love yourself. You are a beautiful and unique person — a gift to the world. Life wants you to be able to fully receive and give affection and love. Life wants you to know that people are more important than things. Things are only here to be worn-out in the service of our needs and of those we love. Always choose people over things. Life wants you to know that feelings are more important than facts, and you should never hurt someone just to be right. Life wants you to respect yourself, respect other people, and respect the planet. Be kind, patient, and forgiving. Life wants you to touch, taste, and see the grandeur of the world’s unfathomable variety. Travel, explore, learn, and experience all you can! Life wants you to take proper care of your bodily vehicle, which carries your consciousness everywhere you wish. Life wants you to connect deeply with the hearts of other people — struggle together and rejoice together. Life wants you to thrive in the domain of your own unique creative vision for yourself. Do not merely submit to the expectations of others or society. Life wants you to be fully supported in your needs and to live in abundance and safety. Life wants you to live in total alignment with true love, passion, and integrity. Life is trying to tell you to wake-up! It’s not too late. A thrilling, brilliant, and electrifying life is yours the moment you wake-up. Proclaim now that you refuse to die without fully living!”
—Bryant McGill
Quotes
There’s A Good Book
“There’s a Good Book about goodness and how to be good and so forth, but there’s no Evil Book about how to be evil and how to be bad. The Devil had no prophets to write his Ten Commandments, and no team of authors to write his biography. His case has gone completely by default. We know nothing about him but a lot of fairy stories from our parents and schoolmasters. He has no book from which we can learn the nature of evil in all its forms, with parables about evil people, proverbs about evil people, folklore about evil people. All we have is the living example of people who are least good, or our own intuition.” -Ian Fleming
I Don’t Hate You
“I don’t hate you. I just don’t like that you exist.” ―Gena Showalter
Of Pain…
“Of pain you could wish only one thing: that it should stop. Nothing in the world was so bad as physical pain. In the face of pain there are no heroes.” ―George Orwell
When You’re Trying To Motivate Yourself
“When you’re trying to motivate yourself, appreciate the fact that you’re even thinking about making a change. And as you move forward, allow yourself to be good enough.” —Alice Domar
I Am All In A Sea Of Wonders
“I am all in a sea of wonders. I doubt; I fear; I think strange things, which I dare not confess to my own soul.” ―Bram Stoker
Perfection
“Perfection is the willingness to be imperfect.” -Lao Tzu
Separate Yourself
“Separate yourself from the lies and illusions which are not you.” —Bryant McGill
This is one of the most inspiring, apropos quotes I have ever come across.
The Goodness In Your Life
“The goodness in your life does not come to you from someone else. When you see this, you will be free. There is no reason and no need to play up to another, or to try to remain in their good graces. Remain in your own, by not betraying yourself. Simply speak your truth, with gentleness and love. And have courage, for what you seek is not outside of you. It is not a gift from another person. It is yours — to give, not to acquire. Let no one, therefore, hold you hostage. Not your partner, not your boss, not your family…and certainly not your God.” —Neale Donald Walsch
Open-Minded
“Open-minded critical thinkers should always be willing to engage in dialogue, despite any differences of opinion.”
—Bryant McGill
