All Life is Change

What's done is done.
- William Shakespeare

All life is change.
Release your attachment to the way things have been,
and wend your way joyfully
through life's unfolding majesty.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

There's a trick to the Graceful Exit.
It begins with the vision to recognize when a job, a life stage,
a relationship is over - and to let go.
It means leaving what's over without denying its value.
- Ellen Goodman

Stop holding on to the past.
1) Release your regrets about whatever you may have done or failed to do that turned out poorly.
2) Forgive others for whatever they may have done or failed to do that caused you harm.
3) Declare today to be a new beginning.
Let go of the past and move on with creating a joyful new future for yourself.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Before moving on, you have to clear away your cherished beliefs.

Do your best, and release your attachment to the outcome

The secret of success is non-attachment to results;
doing your best at the moment,
and letting the results take care of themselves.
- J. Donald Walters

To work without attachment is to work without the expectation
of reward or fear of any punishment in this world or the next.
Work so done is a means to the end, and God is the end.
- Ramakrishna

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions;
reality can be attained only by someone who is detached.
- Simone Weil

You are attached to what you attack.
- Robert Shea

The Buddha discovered that the block to enlightenment is ATTACHMENT to the things of this world, rather than the things themselves. This great revelation is known as the Middle Way - living in moderation, without either gluttony or denial, and without attachment.

Your best is ALWAYS good enough.
After you have truly done your best,
release your attachment to the outcome.

A Great Relationship is a Co-Creation

Love allows your beloved the freedom to be unlike you.
Attachment asks for conformity to your needs and desires.
Love imposes no demands.
Attachment expresses an overwhelming demand - "Make me feel whole."
Love expands beyond the limits of two people.
Attachment tries to exclude everything but two people.
- Deepak Chopra

The greatest gift that you can give to others is the
gift of unconditional love and acceptance.
- Brian Tracy

If you love something, set it free;
if it comes backs it's yours,
if it doesn't, it never was.
- Richard Bach

True love is a process of co-creation
in which neither feels ownership or superiority.
Jealousy is a highly destructive force
for love and relationships.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

The next time you say, "my wife," "my husband," "my children," or even, "my friend," pause for a moment and ask yourself whether there isn't just a tiny bit of possessiveness in that statement.

Find Someone Who Makes You Smile

Don't fall for looks, they can deceive.
Don't fall for wealth, in the end it fades away.
Find someone who makes you smile
because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
- Anonymous

Marriage, ultimately, is the practice of

A loving relationship is one in which
the loved one is free to be himself -
to laugh with me, but never at me;
to cry with me, but never because of me;
to love life, to love himself,
to love being loved.
Such a relationship is based upon freedom
and can never grow in a jealous heart.
- Leo F. Buscaglia

The Bible is self-contradictory,
so a belief in the Bible as God's literal truth
requires that one pick and choose,
which generally consists of clinging to the choices others have made.
In contrast, Faith in an Omnipotent and Benevolent God
doesn't even require reading, listening to, or speaking a single word.
