At any given moment, you can choose to follow the chain of thoughts, emotions, and sensations that reinforce a perception of yourself as vulnerable and limited – or you can remember that your true nature is pure, unconditioned, and incapable of being harmed.(Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche. Joyful Wisdom)
Wishing you peace and well being as you open yourself to a greater sense of awareness and insight.

No action takes place unless it is preceded by thought. If you’re unhappy with the circumstances in which you find yourself, you can improve your situation through the power of thought, just as surely as you can destroy a positive life with negative thinking.( Judith Williamson. Napoleon Hill’s Thought for the Day.)
Wishing you peace and well being as you honestly analyze your present condition and accept the responsibility for your own life.

A man was put into prison for a crime he did not commit. A friend came to visit and smuggled him a present, a prayer rug. The jailed man was disappointed, he did not want a prayer rug, he wanted a hacksaw or knife or something else that would somehow aid his escape. But after some time he decided to make use of the rug, studying the beautiful and intricate pattern as he did his daily prayers. One day he started to see an interesting design in the carpet, a diagram of the internal mechanism of the lock to his cell. He picked the lock and was free. (Mark Epstein. Going on Being: Life at the Crossroads of Buddhism and Psychotherapy.)
Wishing you peace and well being as you look at the major obstacles in your life and watch for the answers that are right in front of you.
