Her words were simple but profound, "Fall in love with your destiny."
How often we search outside of ourselves for some elusive moment, for an experience like someone else is having, for emotion we'd like to feel but aren't, at least not right now. How often we long to be somewhere other than where we are, or someone other than who we are. How easy it can be to complain about and regret our past, thinking it's somehow wrong.
The answer is to fall in love -- fall in love with our own life. Our destiny isn't some far-off moment or something that happens to someone else. Our destiny is taking place right now. It's been happening all along.
Destiny is that mysterious force or energy that magically intertwines with choice, free will, and fate. Let all those elements weave together and create your life. But know you can help to create it too, by falling in love with your own life. Love all the places you have gone and all the places you will go. Love the lessons you have learned and the way you have learned them.
Most of all, love where you are right now. Because that's where your destiny lies.
Melody Beattie

Love cannot make its home in a place where it's not invited. Move into a practice which invites that Presence to make Its home in you because it is home to that Presence. As you would with someone you love, prepare a place of peace and comfort inside your heart, and Love finds Its home right where you are.
Mary Manin Morrissey

Did you ever see the Law that causes a plant to grow? Of course, you did not, and yet you believed in the hidden Law of growth. Why did you believe? Simply because, every year, out of the seed time comes the harvest. To these souls who have dared to believe, has come a definite answer.
Ernest Holmes

Often the true path of love begins only when romance has begun to taper off, for love is the capacity to see light when darkness has begun to eclipse it.
Marianne Williamson

Spirit never fails. Affirm this until it is a very part of your being... failure is a false thought and has no truth in it. It is a belief in lack and there is no lack.
Ernest Holmes

Our greatest strength lies not in how much we differ from each other but in how much - how very much - we are the same.

Let your religion be less of a theory and more of a love affair.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton

Your daily life is your temple and your religion.
