4014624 Love merely becomes clouded over, or surrounded by mental mists. Marianne Williamson
fa34550 Hatred is the spiritual malignancy of our species Marianne Williamson
76c3deb It's like avoidance behavior in therapy--wanting to share the gossip but not wanting to deal with the real, more painful issues. Of course we want to avoid the pain. But by doing so, we inevitably cause more of it. Marianne Williamson
1e2696e Consider the possibility now that anything could happen. I'm not asking you to believe this, but only to consider that it might be true. Simply thinking this thought--that miracles are possible--does more to pave the way for your healing than you can imagine. It opens the door to a realm of infinite possibilities, regardless of what you have been through or what you are going through now. The Marianne Williamson
ab0f61c The pain you are going through is not what will determine your future; your future will be determined by who you are as you go through your pain. Marianne Williamson
3c1500c I conquered outer worlds just as he had. I expressed masculine strength and power just as he had. But it didn't bring me closer to him or to others like him because I had become one of the guys, and that's not what most men are looking for. He had never loved me for being a great guy. marianne-williamson men women Marianne Williamson
7ac3901 The truth is that we have done far too little, for we have never apologized. We have never fully, publicly acknowledged the evil that was done to African-Americans as evil. The Civil War obliterated a wicked institution, but a war alone cannot obliterate wicked thinking. Slavery ended but racism continued, and in many ways it intensified after that war. Slavery existed only in the South, but racism pervades the entire country. Marianne Williamson
5a7772c THE UNIVERSE IS set up to work on your behalf. Marianne Williamson
d7da40d According to ancient Asian philosophy, life is not a circle but a spiral. Every life lesson that has ever been presented to you (which means everything you have ever been through) will come back again, in some form, until you learn it. And the stakes each time will be higher. Whatever you've learned will bear greater fruit. Whatever you've failed to learn will bear harsher consequences. Whatever didn't work in your life before this point wa.. Marianne Williamson
94d6f99 And the more open your heart, the more miracles you'll receive. For miracles occur naturally as expressions of love. When you choose to love, you choose to work miracles. Marianne Williamson
ef68189 I surrender my focus on the past that I might dwell fully in the present. May my mind not wander into the darkness of before, but rather be filled with the light of now. May my heart be open to the knowing that anything is possible in any moment, and God Himself is not held back by the fears or mistakes of yesterday. I forgive what has been, and embrace what is. I am at peace in the holiness of this instant, and release all else. Marianne Williamson
3b7c495 On the Promise of the Present The eternal self dwells in eternity, and eternity intersects linear time at only one point: the present. Who you are in this moment, therefore, is who you truly are. And who you are is love itself. From that essential point of perfect being, created anew by God in every instant, miracles flow naturally. Love interrupts the past and opens the future to new probabilities. No matter who you are, no matter how youn.. Marianne Williamson
bc39b59 whatever it is you choose to think, your subconscious mind takes it very seriously and your experience will reflect your thinking. Marianne Williamson
0bcc84c Your job is to allow the Holy Spirit to remove the fearful thinking that surrounds your perfect self, Marianne Williamson
1215ea6 A story, no matter how factually true, is still just a story. Marianne Williamson
e2e2b90 Toxicity is often released through the tear ducts as part of the body's natural genius at flushing itself out. Casual use of antidepressants is unwise for just this reason--feeling the full extent of your sadness is sometimes the only way to heal it. In the absence of the feeling, you miss out on the healing. The body does not make distinctions among physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual stresses. It is equipped with the natural.. Marianne Williamson
c3ac877 It is only when we have the courage to face things exactly as they are, without any self-deception or illusion, that a light will develop out of events, by which the path to success may be recognized. Marianne Williamson
cd06ccb Love in your mind produces love in your life. This is the meaning of Heaven. Marianne Williamson
cf49944 Love does not conquer all things, but it does set all things right. Marianne Williamson
6666e5b The ego is our self-love turned into self-hatred. Marianne Williamson
beecffb God goes with me everywhere, because God is in my mind. Marianne Williamson
902bfe2 Your calling is what you would do whether you were paid to do it or not. Your calling is what you have to do in order to be happy. Your Marianne Williamson
9c98c1c Think something isn't good enough, and it never will be. Think something is wonderful, and it will only get better. Marianne Williamson
98e5b2c I surrender myself, that I might be used in bringing the end of suffering to all Marianne Williamson
d0656fc He reminds us that, in every situation, the love you've given is real, and the love you have received is real. Nothing else exists. Marianne Williamson
59143cc The ego seeks intimacy through control and guilt. The Holy Spirit seeks intimacy through acceptance and release. Marianne Williamson
32ea690 The cultivation of mental rest, or surrender, is like eating healthy food. It doesn't give us an immediate rush, but over time it provides a lot more energy. Marianne Williamson
ea9e407 are meant to shine. Look at small children. They're all so unique before they start trying to be, Marianne Williamson
e0d6a92 Today I will not be tempted to wander the byroads of pain, but rather I will set my feet upon the path of joy and peace. May the spirit of God protect my mind from any forces of fear that would divert my thinking. Marianne Williamson
3cb47f1 You're afraid of feelings the way you're afraid of food: you're afraid that once you start, you may never stop. But the truth is, feelings are only out of control when they're not handed over for divine resolution. Given to Divine Mind, they're lifted to divine right order--where they will be appropriately felt and then appropriately dissolved. So too shall it be with food appetites, for they are mere reflections of your turmoil or peace. Marianne Williamson
809f981 you keep trying all your old tricks, the ones that never did work but that you keep thinking might work this time. Once you've had enough and you can't do it Marianne Williamson
e1cb4a7 A belief in separation is always at the root of a problem, and a realization of our oneness is always at the root of its solution. Marianne Williamson
df74d9c Of course things might have gone roughly in the past, but the past is over and cannot touch you unless you hold on to it. Right now, in this moment, the universe is responding not to your past but to the truth of who you are, always were, and always will be. Marianne Williamson
10591df Please enter where You already abide. May my mind and heart be pure and true, and may I not deviate from the things of goodness. Marianne Williamson
1959d26 To remember that you are part of God, that you are loved and lovable, is not arrogant. It's humble. To think you are anything else is arrogant, because it implies you're something other than a creation of God. Love is changeless and therefore so are you. Nothing that you have ever done or will ever do can mar your perfection in the eyes of God. You're deserving in His eyes because of what you are, not because of what you do. What you do or .. Marianne Williamson
3b9ee19 I've noticed in myself that if something small and ultimately meaningless has gone wrong--I can't find the file I left on top of my desk, my daughter failed to do what I asked her to do before going to a friend's house--I can easily get rattled. But if someone calls to inform me of a serious difficulty--someone has been in an accident, or a child is in trouble--I notice a profound stillness come over me as I focus on the problem. In the for.. Marianne Williamson
3eb2a8b The expansion of this country was accomplished at the cost of decimation to the Native American population. The American Indian death toll due to the United States' march to the Pacific was massive. Much of the land we stole from the Native Americans is uninhabited to this day; basically, the Indians could have stayed where they were. Had America expanded its boundaries yet been true to its conscience, the American Indian nations could have.. Marianne Williamson
3377ae0 The history of the African-American, also, is so morally outrageous as to make the fact that there has never been an official apology almost unbelievable. A strange psychological phenomenon occurs when a truth is so big, so obvious, that it becomes, in some perverse way, almost easy to resist. The history of racism in the United States is so cruel yet systemic in our society. Perhaps we fear we could not bear the feelings of guilt that woul.. Marianne Williamson
5e59590 Without personal commitment to the attributes of fair play and integrity, the United States is in grave danger. Malice and intolerance stalk our society, staking claim to our minds, and not one corner of our social order is unaffected. This darkness is a significant threat to our national good, perhaps the most significant threat in our history, for it strikes at the heart of democracy. Where people are not free to disagree, there can be no.. Marianne Williamson
d4a44cd Peace means no one is worried about anyone else's cookie...in this moment we are all quietly content with the cookies we have. peace Amy Krouse Rosenthal
f73c888 We need to insist on making culture out of our desire: making paintings, novels, plays and films potent and seductive and authentic enough to undermine and overwhelm the Iron Maiden. artist authentic-living authentic-self beauty-myth novels painting women-s-strength Naomi Wolf
a33677b Porn puts people to sleep, conceptually and politically as well as erotically. Naomi Wolf
127b182 Porn, it turns out, eventually takes the sexiness - that is, the wildness - out of sex. Naomi Wolf
095be83 There are strange movements rising now, not only across the world, but right here in the U.S. of A. You can see it on the internet. Boys dressing as girls to seem more powerful. Girls dressing as boys to shake off the meaning of the power, or to leap on the unsuspecting, wolf in sheep's clothing. Naomi Alderman
