Letting Go with Guy Finley

The sudden touch of hearing, reading, or seeing something True doesn’t so much move us up and into the perfect pitch of Stillness, as does this inner quickening – the ineffable feeling of Forever – sound out, all at once, the music of the spheres within us. And as these celestial notes, silent the moment…

There is nothing as certain as silence, stillness, and solitude to introduce you to the secrets of yourself.

The magic, the power, and the true purpose of all our relationships in life: to help us and to help each other outgrow whatever stands in the way of perfecting our love for one another.

If we want to help our partner change, we must change. There is no other way.

I don’t know about your experience, but I’d wager the following: if we put our complaints…

We have learned that when it comes to waking up together in our relationships, we are all in training, and that our attempts to be patient and kind with those we love will inevitably go through the natural growing pains of “trial and error.” You could almost say that getting “knocked down” is how we…
