....very essence of your heart? When we strip away all pomp and pretence, all attitude and expectation, all pride, fear and foolishness, what do we find? Who do we discover? Are you a mortal or a deity? Are you part of the infinite and the eternal? Or are you trivial and temporal?
And if, as in truth you must be, you are some glorious combination of both, is it not only right and fair to at least acknowledge the existence of the higher spirit that dwells in your soul? It knows what you need. Let it advise you.
Much of your pain is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self.
(Kahlil Gibran)
