Fighting Monsters
*
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster.
~ Friedrich Nietzsche

You will meet people who will genuinely love you, support you, and uplift you just because of your heart. Wait for them.
~ Ehime Ora

In every being there exists a masculine and a feminine nature. The masculine or positive side reveals itself as the powers of discrimination, self-control, exacting judgment — qualities that express or respond to reason. The negative or feminine nature consists of feeling — love, sympathy, kindness, mercy, joy.
In the ideal being, these two aspects are perfectly balanced.
~ Paramahansa Yogananda

Awakening is a painful process. It’s brutal. Everything you thought you knew no longer is the way you know it to be. The sun looks different. Foods don’t taste the same…
It is an unfolding of your soul. The pain is caused from ironing out the creases, trying to remove remnants of the former self. But it doesn’t work that way. The creases are scars, remnants of the journey you trekked to arrive at this destination.
