The people we are in relationship with are always a mirror, reflecting our own beliefs,and simultaneously we are mirrors, reflecting their beliefs. So... relationship is one of the most powerful tools for growth . . . . If we look honestly at our relationships, we can see so much about how we have created them.

FindCenter Quotes ImageLife’s work is to wake up, to let the things that enter into the circle wake you up rather than put you to sleep. The only way to do this is to open, be curious, and develop some sense of sympathy for everything that comes along, to get to know its nature and let it teach you what it will.
