It is difficult for many of us to believe in our goodness. We more easily take our worst fears and thoughts to be who we are. Our belief in a limited and impoverished identity is such a strong habit that without it many of us are afraid we wouldn’t know how to be. If we fully acknowledged our dignity, it could lead to radical life changes. It could ask something huge of us. Some part of us knows that the frightened and damaged self is not who we are. Each of us needs to find our way to be whole and free. - Jack Kornfield

"Free" is not free from feelings, but free to feel each one and let it move on, unafraid of the movement of live. - Jack Kornfield
