There are three

Written by Alain Herriott on . Posted in Thought for the Week.

“There are three things extremely hard: steel, a diamond, and to know one’s self.” Benjamin Franklin

 We are taught from an early age try really hard in life.  Most everything we read and hear compels us to overcome something in order to achieve this “goal”.  But knowing oneself is about being, not working hard.  It is something you get as you unfold the resistances that show up in your life.  This is so counter-intuitive that many find it hard to believe.  What an amazing creation, that makes us reach when reaching is what is in the way.  Again, we encourage you to feel; it is the entry point to freedom and knowing oneself.  ~Alain & Jody Herriott
