Accept what IS

We can always learn from the teachers around us, as well as all of life. When we stop being students, we stop the flow of wisdom that can come to us. We must never think we know it all. That we have 'arrived.' There is, for one thing, no one to know it all, nor anyone to arrive. Hubris and arrogance are huge blocks on the path of conscious awareness. They prevent the very words, experiences, and wisdom we need for our heart to grow and expand. Stay open to all that life has to give you. Be responsive to life in a right way, with a heart wide open. Lately, I am liking the wisdom of the Roman Emperor, Marcus Aurelius, who lived from April 26, 121 AD to March 17, 180 AD.

“Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fate brings you together, but do so with all your heart.”
