Great Quotes

“Things feel ‘true’ due to a sense of congruence, most often by matching current subconscious beliefs and feelings, which are highly unreliable.” – Shaun Roundy

Great Quotes

“Feelings are extremely important, for they teach us much about ourselves, the world around us, and our relationship to other human beings. For instance, positive emotions tell us something is right—we feel joyful, peaceful, content, expansive, loving. Negative emotions tell us something is wrong—we feel fearful, angry, sad, hopeless. They tell us when something needs to be changed, and not necessarily something outside of ourselves, such as another person’s behavior. Even our spirituality is based to a degree on emotion: a burning in the bosom, a feeling of peace or love, the sense that something is right for reasons that have nothing to do with logic.” – Carroll Hofeling Morris

Great Quotes

Ordinarily, I go to the woods alone, with not a single friend, for they are all smilers and talkers and therefore unsuitable. I don’t really want to be witnessed talking to the catbirds or hugging the old black oak tree. I have my way of praying, as you no doubt have yours. Besides, when I am alone I can become invisible. I can sit on the top of a dune as motionless as an uprise of weeds, until the foxes run by unconcerned. I can hear the almost unhearable sound of the roses singing. If you have ever gone to the woods with me, I must love you very much. Mary Oliver

Great Quotes

“Our kids have to learn to be self-motivated because at some point in every person’s life, either at school or in a job or in a marriage, he or she will have to buck up and say, “This is hard.

Great Quotes

“People are naturally kind, generous, good, and have infinite potential. Expect this of them and you support them in rising toward their best selves.

Great Quotes

“Abundance says, ‘There is always everything.'” – Shaun Roundy

Great Quotes

“Cherish your doubts, for doubt is the attendant of truth. Doubt is the key to the door of knowledge; it is the servant of discovery. A belief which may not be questioned binds us to error, for there is incompleteness and imperfection in every belief. Doubt is the touchstone of truth; it is an acid which eats away the false. Let no one fear for the truth, that doubt may consume it; for doubt is a testing of belief. The truth stands boldly and unafraid; it is not shaken by the testing; For truth, if it be truth, arises from each testing stronger, more secure. Those that would silence doubt are filled with fear; their houses are built on shifting sands. But those who fear not doubt, and know its use; are founded on rock. They shall walk in the light of growing knowledge; the work of their hands shall endure. Therefore let us not fear doubt, but let us rejoice in its help: It is to the wise as a staff to the blind; doubt is the attendant of truth.” – Robert T. Weston
