More Quotes by Alan Cohen
Appreciation is the highest form of prayer, for it acknowledges the presence of good wherever you shine the light of your thankful thoughts.
We believe we are hurt when we don't receive love. But that is not what hurts us. Our pain comes when we do not give love. We were born to love. You might say that we are divinely created love machines. We function most powerfully when we are giving love. The world has led us to believe that our wellbeing is dependent on other people loving us. But this is kind of upside down thinking that has caused so many of our problems. The truth is our well being is dependent on our giving love. It is not about what comes back; it is about what goes out!
The door you open to give love is the very one through which love arrives.
Your life is not a problem to be solved, but an adventure to be enjoyed. You are doing better than you think.
You give your power away when you make someone or something outside of you more important than what is inside of you.
Use pain as a stepping stone, not a camp ground.
Life is a gift from God, an unlimited series of opportunities to find the good in ourselves and others. There is good in everything, if we are willing to see it.
A life without change is not a life; it is a stagnant pool.
Everything will line up perfectly when knowing and living the truth becomes more important than looking good.
Do not wait until the conditions are perfect to begin. Beginning makes the conditions perfect.
