“The point [of meditation] is not to try to throw ourselves away and become something better. It’s about befriending who we already are.” ~ Pema Chodron
I believe passionately in the power of change but what I love more is change that is born from a deep knowledge of things as they are right now. And what I love best is the recognition that we, at our true essence, are perfect in every way right now. The act of meditation only helps to clear away the thoughts and perceptions that keep us from realizing our perfection.
Meditation doesn’t change you. It just helps to make you the very best version of you in this moment. It shines a light on everything that is wonderful, good, and kind within you. And then in turn it gives you the opportunity to honor what is wonderful, good, and kind in everyone who surrounds you in every moment of your living.
