Accepting ourselves as courageous in the face of vulnerability, this helplessness to affect anything other than how we choose to face our fears, will reveal the path to our hearts. When we choose our hearts and experience compassion for ourselves , by extension we can project love for and receive it from our fellow man or woman.

“There’s always the opportunity to lose control… our mind speaks of ‘loss of control’ in our society as if it is a bad thing and results in literally, no control. How ironic that if, in fact, we surrendered control, or rather the need to control, so much of our fear goes away — as well as the anger at ourselves for ultimately not being able to have control.” PMG
