To forgive is not to forget, but rather to re-member whatever has been dismembered.
I always had the sense that nothing was never good enough - striving for perfection. My mother and I had a sort of typical mother-daughter relationship.
I was passionate. I found something that I loved. I could be all alone in a big old skating rink and nobody could get near me and I didn't have to talk to anybody because of my shyness. It was great. I was in my fantasy world.
I was a bratty little sister. I was the youngest of three, and I often felt as though I didn't fit in.
To be the world's best, you have to beat the world's best.
If I'm on skates, I feel at home no matter what I'm doing. If they wanted me to sing and dance I think I could do it just becauseI was on skates. When I'm not on skates, though, I feel very strange.
If you are a complete perfectionist, then the truth is that this ice skating business will drive you a little crazy!
Weight issues, race issues will always be there and if you allow them to get to you and you allow them to affect you then yes they affect you. But my thing is I have so many other things to worry about I can't worry about other people's perception of me.
I didn't have to wear a mask on Halloween to scare people, so I didn't need one to cover my face on the field!
Things don't exist until they exist.
One of the extraordinary things about awakening is that it carries with it the realization that there is only Spirit. Even the things of the world that we look at as problems are simply part of the way the world manifests, because it does so in terms of opposites.
