Via Ram Dass - Love Serve Remember Foundation / Words of Wisdom - February 26, 2020 💌
If there is anything at all that can bring us down, if our house is built on sand and there is fear, we aren’t free. For where there is fear, you are not free. Thus you become motivated to confront the places in yourself that bring you down; not only to confront them but to create situations in which to bring them forth, into light.
