"No mirror ever became iron again; No bread ever became wheat;
No ripened grape ever became sour fruit. Mature yourself and be secure from a change for the worse. Become the light."

~ Mevlana Rumi, 13th century sufi poet and mystic from Rumi Daylight: A Daybook of Spiritual Guidance

Let's remember to appreciate each step we take in the self-actualizing process.

Remember that once you‘ve evolved to a new stage of development, you simply cannot go back to the levels you were previously at!

Rejoice in that fact and appreciate your growth.

Become the light.

Don't duck the most difficult problems. That just ensures that the hardest part will be left when you are most tired. Get the big one done—it's downhill from then on.

Testimonials
“I have been looking forward to getting onto my computer each day to see what you have in store for me that day. I read two things each day. A passage from the bible and now your newsletter. I use both of them to guide and inspire me throughout the following day. In my mind, you truly are a great philosopher! Keep up the great work. Thanks,”
