Quotes from the same author

When we are able to receive life's challenges as koans rather than problems, they become interesting and exciting, rather than ponderous and depressing.
 Brenda Shoshanna
The facts of our lives, when we are able to know them, will free us from the torment we are in. When we can bear reality thoroughly, suffering is over. Pain may exist, but it is only pain. Suffering is what we add to pain.
 Brenda Shoshanna
It is a mistake to expect all of our needs to be met by one person or in one relationship. Honor and be grateful for that which you receive. Don't become bitter and spend all your time focusing on that which the person is not able to provide.
 Brenda Shoshanna
The best defense against being hurt is to feel good about yourself and the way a person responds to you says more about them, than about you.

When we are in a truly loving relationship, we receive the gift of being known and accepted. We become more, not less, of who we are. We receive the space in which to bloom. This is how we know we are in a loving relationship. We are blooming, and the one we love is blooming as well.
