The truth that many people never understand
until it is too late is that the more
you try to avoid suffering,
the more you suffer.

Thomas Merton: The Truth That Many People Never Understand
There is deep wisdom here. Learning to tenderly, compassionately, and courageously know and befriend ourselves right where we're at is indeed the pathway to consciously seeing, befriending, and embracing one another and this beautiful world we share. This journey is not about "self-improvement," as I once had thought. It is the spiritual process of becoming who we truly are, of knowing the beauty of our true nature. Bless us all. ― Molly
