“There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.” ~ John Lennon

“Men celebrated our sexual liberation — our willingness to freely give and enjoy blow jobs and group sex, our willingness to experiment with anal penetration — but ultimately many males revolted when we stated that our bodies were territories that they could not occupy at will. Men who were ready for female sexual liberation if it meant free pussy, no strings attached, were rarely ready for feminist female sexual agency. This agency gave us the right to say yes to sex, but it also empowered us to say no.” — bell hooks in Communion: The Female Search for Love |

“Don't waste your time trying to convince an insecure person that they are beautiful. Self-esteem is not something you can talk someone into, or out of. Self-esteem is amassed. It is the total sum of all you think say and do. It is built through the years by viewing your own thoughts and deeds about yourself , living in the world you create for yourself and how you measure up to your own skewed view of yourself in regards to the world around you. ” ― Dr. William L. Chismar

Quotes of St. Teresa of Avila
“Let nothing perturb you, nothing frighten you. All things pass. God does not change. Patience achieves everything.” “May today there be peace within. May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith. May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content knowing you are a child of God." "Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love." “It is love alone that gives worth to all things.” “Let nothing disturb you, Let nothing frighten you, All things are passing away: God never changes. Patience obtains all things. Whoever has God lacks nothing; God alone suffices.” ― Teresa of Ávila “Christ has no body now on earth but yours, no hands but yours, no feet but yours, Yours are the eyes through which to look out Christ's compassion to the world Yours are the feet with which he is to go about doing good; Yours are the hands with which he is to bless men now.” ― Teresa of Ávila “It is foolish to think that we will enter heaven without entering into ourselves.” ― Teresa of Ávila ____________________ One day, Jesus appeared and knocked St. Teresa off her horse-drawn cart into the mud. She rose caked in mud and replied, “Lord, If this is how you treat your friends, no wonder you have so many enemies.” ― Teresa of Ávila ____________________ “Thank God for the things that I do not own.” ― Teresa of Ávila “You pay God a compliment by asking great things of Him.” ― Teresa of Ávila “God save us from gloomy saints!” ― Teresa of Ávila “Be gentle to all, and stern with yourself.” ― Teresa of Ávila “Love turns work into rest.” ― Teresa of Ávila “Untilled ground, however rich, will bring forth thistles and thorns; so also the mind of man.” ― Teresa of Ávila “The important thing is not to think much but to love much; and so do that which best stirs you to love.” ― Teresa of Ávila “The closer one approaches to God, the simpler one becomes.” ― Teresa of Ávila “This Beloved of ours is merciful and good. Besides, he so deeply longs for our love that he keeps calling us to come closer. This voice of his is so sweet that the poor soul falls apart in the face of her own inability to instantly do whatever he asks of her. And so you can see, hearing him hurts much more than not being able to hear him… For now, his voice reaches us through words spoken by good people, through listening to spiritual talks, and reading sacred literature. God calls to us in countless little ways all the time. Through illnesses and suffering and through sorrow he calls to us. Through a truth glimpsed fleetingly in a state of prayer he calls to us. No matter how halfhearted such insights may be, God rejoices whenever we learn what he is trying to teach us.” ― Teresa of Ávila, Interior Castle “For if the will has nothing to employ it and love has no present object with which to busy itself, the soul finds itself without either support or occupation, its solitude and aridity cause it great distress and its thoughts involve it in the severest conflict.” ― Teresa of Ávila, The Life of Saint Teresa of Ávila by Herself “The devil frequently fills our thoughts with great schemes, so that instead of putting our hands to what work we can do to serve our Lord, we may rest satisfied with wishing to perform impossibilities.” ― Teresa of Ávila, Interior Castle “Accustom yourself continually to make many acts of love, for they enkindle and melt the soul.” ― Teresa of Ávila, Complete Works of St Teresa of Jesus: Volume 3 “It is of great importance, when we begin to practise prayer, not to let ourselves be frightened by our own thoughts.” ― Teresa of Ávila, The Life of Saint Teresa of Ávila by Herself “In light of heaven, the worst suffering on earth will be seen to be no more serious than one night in an inconvenient hotel.” ― Teresa of Ávila “I am quite sure I am more afraid of people who are themselves terrified of the devil than I am of the devil himself.” ― Teresa of Ávila, The Life of Saint Teresa of Ávila by Herself “For prayer is nothing else than being on terms of friendship with God.” ― Teresa of Ávila “God withholds Himself from no one who perseveres.” ― Teresa of Ávila “Vivo sin vivir en mí... muero porque no muero. (I live without really being alive... I die because I am not dying.)” ― Teresa of Ávila “I know a person who, though no poet, composed some verses in a very short time, which were full of feeling and admirably descriptive of her pain: they did not come from her understanding, but, in order the better to enjoy the bliss which came to her from such delectable pain, she complained of it to her God. She would have been so glad if she could have been cut to pieces, body and soul, to show what joy this pain caused her. What torments could have been set before her at such a time which she would not have found it delectable to endure for her Lord's sake?” ― Teresa of Ávila, The Life of Saint Teresa of Ávila by Herself “Trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.” ― Teresa of Ávila |

"Celebrate your SELF. The world is a reflection of how you see your Self. When you look in the mirror to brush your teeth, you do not apply the toothbrush to the mirror. That is because the world is created from the inside out. What we "see" is who we are, nothing more, nothing less. Dig deep - Be brave - Keep going - and LOVE YOUR SELF!"
That is my Happy New Year wish for you. |
