TODAY'sQUOTES

"I give you this to take with you: Nothing remains as it was. If you know this, you canbegin again, with pure joy in the uprooting."

- Judith Minty, poet.

"It makes no difference how deeply seated may be the trouble, how hopeless the outlook how muddled the tangle, how great the mistake. A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all."

- Emmet Fox, best-selling author.

"We all want progress, but if you're on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive."

- C. S. Lewis, author well known for his fictional work, especially The Screwtape Letters, The Chronicles of Narnia and The Space Trilogy.

"You are like a candle. Imagine you are sending light out all around you. All your words, thoughts and actions are going in many directions. If you say something kind, your kind words go in many directions, and you yourself go with them. We are ...transforming and continuing in a different form at every moment."

- Thich Nhat Hanh, is a Buddhist monk.

Today is Easter. No matter what faith, religion, non-religion or belief system you have, there is great value in the symbolic meaning of today.

Today is a day of metaphorical rebirth. In the Christian Faith, Good Friday (2 days ago) is the day Christ was crucified and today is the day he was reborn.

Today's message isn't about Christ. Today's message is Uni-versal and applies to every person of every faith and belief system.

Today is about embracing the death of your fears and being reborn into a life of love. For your fears to die does not mean that your fears go away. No. It means that, day by day, you face your fears and use them as a compass showing you where to go. After enough practice at facing your fears, they will dim and a deeper part of you will emerge.

This deeper part is the love within.

Every hero in every great story faces death and rebirth right before revelation. So it is with you. As you face your fears and they begin to lose power over you, you begin to step into a larger world filled with love and infinite potential.

A life of fear will keep you trapped until it is too painful to stay there, unless you consciously choose to step out, right now, and face your fears.

To be reborn, that is to live life with fear in the back seat, is true freedom. To die to your fears and be born a life of love is the symbolic meaning of today.

You are the hero of your own life. The lessons of your life are yours to learn. The darkness that surrounds you cannot beat you when you remember the Light of Love within you.

If you are afraid to love today, face the fear and become vulnerable.

If you have a dream that is waiting to be born, face your fear and step towards it today.

If you are in an unhealthy relationship, say, "no more!" and leave.

Whatever your fear is, face it today.

A life unimaginable is waiting for you on the other side.

Love,

Mastin
