Curious Paradox

The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.

~Carl Rogers

If you have come here to help me, you are wasting your time...
but if you have come here because your liberation is bound with mine,
then let us work together.

~ anonymous Aboriginal woman

Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It is a conversation between equals.

~Gregory Boyle
