To the extent to which we believe in this world, we are heir to the laws which rule this place. Marianne Williamson More Quotes by Marianne Williamson More Quotes From Marianne Williamson A meaningful life is not a popularity contest. Do what in your heart you believe to be the right thing, and you may or may not get immediate approval from the world. Do it anyway. Marianne Williamson meaningfulinspirationalbelieve When we do align with it, we thrive. And when we do not, we suffer. This is not "punishment." It is merely the Law of Cause and Effect. With each thought we think, we either align with universal love, or we disconnect ourselves from it. Whichever is our choice determines whether we then feel connected to, or disconnected, from our own true Selves. Marianne Williamson selfinspirationalthinking The world we live in pictures a pie with only so many pieces, and if other people have more you have less, and you have to compete with other people in order to try to get ahead. You have to sell yourself at every available opportunity. The shift, the enlightened shift, has to do with a movement from competition to collaboration, from sales to service, from ambition to inspiration, and to a belief in scarcity to a belief in abundance as an eternal spiritual quality. Marianne Williamson inspirationambitionspiritual Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us. Marianne Williamson encouraginginspirationallife The choice to follow love through to its completion is the choice to seek completion within ourselves. The point at which we shut down on others is the point at which we shut down on life. We heal as we heal others, and we heal others by extending our perceptions past their weaknesses. Until we have seen someone’s darkness, we don’t really know who that person is. Until we have forgiven someone’s darkness, we don’t really know what love is. Forgiving others is the only way to forgive ourselves, and forgiveness is our greatest need.

Marianne Williamson hellmindheaven Every time we're about to criticize someone for what we think they did wrong, let's first remember to thank them for the things they did right. And to mean it; to sincerely affirm them. Then, if there's still a problem that needs to be shared, it will come from a completely different energy -- and actually be heard! Marianne Williamson being-thankfulmeanthinking Once the light of our awareness is cast on any darkness, then it cannot hide and it cannot remain. Such is the law of consciousness. Marianne Williamson lightdarknesslaw Life is a book that never ends. Chapters close, but not the book itself. The end of one physical incarnation is like the end of a chapter, on some level setting up the beginning of another.

This is not a negative process, but at times it is a difficult process.

The challenges we face in life are always lessons that serve our soul's growth. Marianne Williamson growthsoulchallenges The meaningful question is never what we did yesterday, but what we have learned from it and are doing today. Marianne Williamson yesterdaytodaymeaningful Often we see a couple who has separated or divorced and look with sadness at the ‘failure’ of their relationship. But if both people learned what they were meant to learn, then that relationship was a success. Marianne Williamson sadnesscouplepeople Prepare for the new; expect the new; embrace the new.

Marianne Williamson true-selfmiracleself Sometimes when we're feeling sad, it's important just to feel the sadness. Like a snake shedding its skin, old feelings of remorse and regret and hurt and anger often have to come up in order to be released. On the other side we're a better person, capable of a happier life...who we are when we're no longer burdened by the buried feelings that weighed us down, or the self - defeating patterns that the pain produced.
