The greatest tragedy of our lives is not that freedom is not possible, but that we pass our years trapped in the same patterns…

We are caught in a trance of unworthiness, of not being enough, and because of that trance we turn against ourselves and others.

When we begin to trust the goodness in ourselves, we begin to relax. We begin to open.

From that openness, a natural kindness begins to emerge – an expression of our true nature
