“The idea of possession lies at the heart of all fear, war and conflict. Instead choose the relationship of a trustee. Everything comes to us in trust, for us to use and then to set it free.
The consciousness of trustee sets us free of the tension of grasping and guarding. To see ourselves as trustees of everything that we receive, including our bodies, encourages our innate capacity to ‘care for with dignity’.
It is a much more relaxing way of relating to the things which we are privileged to receive in life.“

“It is permissible to take life’s blessings with both hands provided thou dost know thyself prepared in the opposite event to take them just as gladly. This applies to food and friends and kindred, to anything God gives and takes away… As long as God is satisfied do thou rest content. If he is pleased to want something else of thee, still rest content.”
— Meister Eckhart
“Sometimes what seems like surrender isn’t surrender at all. It’s about what’s going on in our hearts. About seeing clearly the way life is and accepting it and being true to it, whatever the pain, because the pain of not being true to it is far, far greater.”
— Nicholas Evans
“When you commit to something bigger than yourself you rise to a level much higher than yourself.”

“If you don’t live life on purpose you live life by accident. Which is why some days feel like a motorway pile up!
The highest purpose is always giving, or serving others, without wanting anything in return. This is why relaxation is always impossible if we are always ‘on the take’. There is an overall purpose for your life, and each scene is an opportunity to serve your purpose.
Take time to think deeply, listen to your intuition, and with patience, the reason why you are here, and what you uniquely have to give, will occur to you. Then you can live your life ‘on purpose’.“
