Our first responsibility on the path, then, is to understand our relationship to God, to other people, and to the events in our lives -- so that we may stop blaming something outside of ourselves for our troubles. Actually, it can be a great relief when we discover we can stop looking everywhere for someone or something to blame. It can be a relief to know we need only look in the mirror to find the source of our troubles. But at the same time, we can congratulate ourselves on our courage to confront ourselves. And as we begin to uncover our issues one by one, and as we begin to heal, we come to see how much easier it is not to have to look far for our answers.

Jill Downs

Why should you not expect the greatest and finest in your life? We exist in a Divine Bounty that awaits our taking…. No one is too poor or too rich to expect great things. If you are sick, expect to get well again. If you are unhappy, expect to be happy. No power outside yourself is demanding that you be miserable. All of Life wants you to be healthy, happy, and free to do what you want to do.

Raymond Charles Barker

To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.
