Earlier today, I posted a manifesto, or credo, if you will, that I found positive and uplifting. Years ago, I found bits and pieces of poetry and commentary that raised my consciousness even higher. I carry these thoughts on a well-worn piece of paper in my wallet. Over time, the paper has worn, but the thoughts have not. I do not know the source of these thoughts. If anyone can identify the source of the second quote,, I will modify my post and give credit where it is due. 

“By being nothing, you are everything. By wanting nothing, you are eternally full of grace.” 

        from Kalu Rinpoche

“When we realize who we are, we no longer have this endless confusion, this eternal battle with ourselves. Thus, we no longer struggle with others or the world.”

       from ?

"All that you are seeking is also seeking you. If you sit still, it will find you. It has been waiting for you a long time." 

       from Clarissa Pinkola Estes
