Topic: Happiness
NOT YET RATED
You make the mistake of thinking you have to choose, that you have to do what you want, that there are conditions for happiness.

A canvas waiting for our embroideries.

Topic: Happiness
NOT YET RATED
Don’t feel bad about feeling bad. Don’t be frightened of feeling afraid. Don’t be angry about getting angry. There is no need to give up when we are feeling depressed. Nor should we be dismayed at the grief which often accompanies the outgrowing of anything which needs outgrowing. We can be glad that our soul is speaking to us and pushing us onwards. We frequently need to persevere with a period of inner turmoil before the dust can settle and be swept out the door.
- Donna Goddard
