I posted this on Facebook, but I love this more than anything else I've ever read, so here it is:
"There is a big mix out there, and there's lots of different things going on, and there is not one way that was intended to be the right way. Just like there's not one color or one flower or one vegetable or one fingerprint. There is not one that is to be the right one over all others. The variety is what fosters the creativity. And so you say, "Okay, I accept that there's lots of variety, but I don't like to eat cucumbers." Don't eat cucumbers. But don't ask them to be eliminated and don't condemn those who eat them. Don't stand on corners waving signs trying to outlaw the things that you don't like. Don't ruin your life by pushing against. Instead, say, "I choose this instead." "
--- Abraham and Jerry & Esther Hicks
I love this quote as well! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteJerry and Esther Hicks are great! (Anything from Hay House publishing is great.)
ReplyDeleteBoy, ain't this the truth! - "Don't ruin your life by pushing against. Instead, say, "I choose this instead."
