Until we have met the monsters in ourselves, we will keep trying to slay them in the outer world. For all darkness in the world stems from darkness in the heart. And it is there we must do our work.
— Marianne Williamson (American author, spiritual leader, politician, and activist. She has written 13 books, including four New York Times number one bestsellers. She is founder of Project Angel Food, a volunteer food delivery program that serves home-bound people with HIV/AIDS and other life-threatening illnesses. She is also the co-founder of the Peace Alliance, a nonprofit education and advocacy organization supporting peace-building projects. Williamson says A Course in Miracles was her “path out of hell.”)
My favourite therapist says that we bring all of our old crap into our present day relationships and this inevitably hinders our happiness and fulfillment. He also says delving into our baggage is the road less travelled. Personally, I have found “the work” itself fulfilling and calming. Certainly all of my relationships have improved a great deal. Just sayin’ ;) Hugs.
