Freedom Is Still The Most Radical Idea

I Believe That Earning Your Living Doing Something You Enjoy Is One Of The Very Best Ways To Nourish Yourself. But Even If You Are Employed At Something That Is Not Your Ideal Work, It Is Important To Find Ways To Take As Much Pleasure In It As Possible. Living In The Present Moment Can Make Ordinary Activities More Interesting And Joyful; You May Be Surprised, If You Only Look, At What You Will Find. If You Try To Stay Connected With Why You Are Doing What You Are Doing, For Example, Then Even The Parts Of Your Life That Aren't Especially Interesting Can Become More Meaningful.

It Is A Curious Paradox Of Human History That A Doctrine That Tells Human Beings To Regard Themselves As Sacrificial Animals Has Been Accepted As A Doctrine Representing Benevolence And Love For Mankind.

If You Are Terrified Of Making Mistakes, You Will Be Reluctant To Acknowledge Them When You Do Make Them-and Therefore You Will Not Correct Them.

You Have A Right To Your Feelings. Your Feelings Are There To Tell You Something, But They Are Not Infallible Guides To Behavior.

To Exist Without Purpose Is To Be At The Mercy Of The Chance Encounter, The Chance Invitation, The Chance Phone Call, The Chance Event- Always Being Controlled By Forces External To Oneself.
