Transformation Involves The Courage To Face Our Faults

‘But any process of transformation initially involves some difficulty.

We first must summon the courage to look at and face our faults.’

– Phakchok Rinpoche and Sophie Wu, Awakening Dignity: A Guide to Living a Life of Deep Fulfillment

A Space Allows For Clear Seeing

‘… allowing a space before we react predictably is magical. …

It’s what allows for making friends with myself,

what allows for clear seeing and a change of direction.

Without this mindful gap, without refraining,

we just stay stuck in old patterns, wondering,

yet again, ‘How did I get into this mess?”- Pema Chodron, How We Live Is How We Die
