A Thought For The Day. . .

"When you let go of the belief that you should or need to know who you are, what happens to the confusion ? Suddenly it is gone. When you fully accept that you don't know, you actually enter into a state of peace and clarity that is closer to who you truly are than thought could have be. Defining yourself through thought is limiting yourself."
~Eckart Tolle~

Wonderful quote for the day. I believe it is much better to think about where we want to go, not who we are. Most of us define who we are based on what we've been told and that is not always the truth.

Hear, hear. Less navel-gazing is always a good thing! There is far too much to do and too many people to love and care for. I love this quote.

Good quote!

Most of the time I'm thinking, not "who am I?" but "what do I need to do now?" I know who I am so far, but I don't know yet what I could be... it depends on what I do and how I act, as well as what I think and believe.

If I spent endless energy on "who am I" I know I'd get the answer "a self-absorbed drip!" :-)
