Today's Inspiration ...

"We know too much and feel too little. At least, we feel too little of those creative emotions from which a good life springs." -- Bertrand Russell

Many of the qualities that bring fulfilment in life are feelings, like love, joy, freedom and gratitude. In our overly rational world, we tend to think about how we feel, which, of course, is not feeling at all -- it’s thinking. Honour your feelings and be willing to experience them. They give us valuable feedback about what is and what is not working in our lives. They are the signposts to meaningful inner work.

"With just a little education and practice on how to manage your emotions, you can move into a new experience of life so rewarding that you will be motivated to keep on managing your emotional nature in order to sustain it. The payoff is delicious in terms of improved quality of life." -- Doc Childre
