Be comfortable in your own skin.

 

Know who you are.

 

Understand deeply that what people do is never a reflection of you and is always their perception of life.

 

You are not for everyone and they are not always for you.

 

When you are not included, invited, or considered, whisper to yourself, “Thank you for the space necessary in my life for the people that matter most to me. I am blessed.” 

 

 

 What you dislike in others is usually wat you dislike most in yourself.

 The people who drive you crazy do so because they reflect back at you the worst aspects of yourself that you have either tried to deny or overcome.

 Our irrational anger and emotions are always about us.

 If we see something that reflects something undesirable within us, we react strongly. 

It's important we get comfortable with ourselves and to get to know our shadow.

Now every time I witness a strong person,

 I want to know: 

What darkness did you conquer in your story?

Everything will be all right.

we’ll have the consolation

 Hey. 

You.

 Relax your facial muscles.

 Drop your shoulders. 

 Take a deep breath.

 Feeling better? 

Awesome. 

 Get back to whatever you were doing. 

Have A Based Day.

Don't look for any other state 

than the one you are in now; 

otherwise, 

you will set up inner conflict

 and unconscious resistance.

The beauty is that openness is where our true strength is. 

This is where our true power is, where our true invincibility is. 

Because as openness, 

there’s nothing that can be taken away from you, 

there’s nothing that can be diminished.

 As openness you are life itself.

 

 

 

 

At any moment, you have a choice, 

that either leads you closer to your spirit

 or further away from it. 

 

Letting go gives us freedom,

 and freedom is the only condition for happiness. 

 

If, in our heart, we still cling to anything 

- anger, anxiety, or possessions - 

we cannot be free.

Your calendar is fucked

 

 

 To make things happen, you need CONFIDENCE. 

 But true confidence isn't about knowing it all.

 It's about knowing that you will figure it out. 

 It's the belief that every destination has a path,

 and you can walk that path.

 In life, 

it's important to know

 when to stop arguing with people 

and simply let them be wrong.

 Build people up instead of tearing them down,

 appreciate them instead of taking them for granted,

As traumatized children, we always dreamed that someone would come and save us. 

 

We never dreamed that it would, in fact, be ourselves as adults.

We are a society of notoriously unhappy people: 

lonely, anxious, depressed, destructive, dependent — 

people who are glad when we have killed the time 

we are trying so hard to save.

 Problems that remain persistently insoluble

 Billions of years ago you were a big bang. 

You're not something that's a sort of puppet on the end of the process. 

You're still the process.

 You are the big bang, the original force of the universe, coming on as whoever you are.

 You do not tidy up a dark room. 

You open the windows first. 

Letting in the light makes everything easy.

 So, let us wait to improve others

 until we have seen ourselves as we are 

- and have changed.

 Most people assume that they suffer because of the negative aspects of themselves.

 But the real reason they suffer is because they avoid those negative aspects of themselves, not the fact they have them

 Put another way, self-acceptance is the ticket to satisfaction.

Don't be afraid of your weaknesses.

 Wherever I am, there's always Pooh,

 There's always Pooh and Me. 

“What would I do?”

 I said to Pooh, “If it wasn't for you,”

 and Pooh said: “True, It isn't much fun for One, but Two, Can stick together,” says Pooh, says he.

 “That's how it is,” says Pooh.

Grapes must be crushed to make wine.

 Diamonds form under pressure.

 Olives are pressed to release oil. 

Seeds grow in darkness. 

Whenever you feel crushed, 

under pressure, pressed, or in darkness,

 you're in a powerful place 

of transformation and transmutation.

 Trust the process.

De wens

Wat als het niet de schuld is
van mijn krappe jas. Wat als
de hele wereld past, maar niet
bij mij. Wat als straks blijkt
dat ik al jaren word gemist
in het heelal. Wat zou ik gaten
springen in de lucht. Wat ben
ik buitenaards. Wat mij nog
mooier lijkt is dit: dat ik twee
vleugels van mijn vader krijg.
Dat mijn moeder voor me staat
en zegt: verbaas ons maar.
Dat brullen wil ik van ze horen.
Dat ik moet leren vliegen met
de kleren die ik draag. Dat mijn
schouders breder worden
en de wereld weer mijn maat.

 If you try to hold on to life, you lose it. 

You can't hold your breath and stay alive; 

it becomes extremely uncomfortable to hold your breath. 

And so in exactly the same way

 it becomes extremely uncomfortable

 to spend all your time holding on to your life.

 Sometimes 

the firmest steps

 are taken with trembling legs. 

Face your fears

 and keep going.

DURF TE SCHITTEREN 

 

When I started writing 'My Struggle,' 

my father was still an issue: 

someone I had in me every day, 

someone I would dream about

 - he was still a part of me. 

He was such a huge figure for me, 

and now he is just one among many, 

and that feels like a relief.
