More Quotes by Marianne Williamson
We were all born carrying a promise -- a promise to make the world better -- and there's a yearning to make good on that promise that none of us can suppress forever.
We are not here to fix, change or belittle another person. We are here to support, forgive and heal one another.
We don't ask God for too much; in fact, we ask for too little. Turn to Him for everything. Give everything to God.
Bless more; blame less.
Every time we're about to criticize someone for what we think they did wrong, let's first remember to thank them for the things they did right. And to mean it; to sincerely affirm them. Then, if there's still a problem that needs to be shared, it will come from a completely different energy -- and actually be heard!
Forgiveness is the key to inner peace because it is the mental technique by which our thoughts are transformed from fear to love.
In every moment we make a decision -- whether conscious or unconscious. Will I choose to open my heart, send love, withhold judgment and thus free myself from fear? Or will I close my heart, project fear instead of extending love, judge others, and thus bind myself to fear? The choice is mine and mine alone.
Our triumph over sorrow is not that we can avoid it but that we can endure it. And therein lies our hope; that in spirit we might become bigger than the problems we face.
Nothing binds you except your thoughts; nothing limits you except your fear; and nothing controls you except your beliefs.
The new midlife is where you realize that even your failures make you more beautiful and are turned spiritually into success if you became a better person because of them. You became a more humble person. You became a more merciful and compassionate person.
