“...our life crises tell us that we need to break free of beliefs that no longer serve our personal development. These points at which we must choose to change or to stagnate are our greatest challenges. Every new crossroads means we enter into a new cycle of change - whether it be adopting a new health regimen or a new spiritual practice. And change inevitably means letting go of familiar people and places and moving on to another stage of life.” PeopleNeedsMeanSpiritualMovingBeliefChallengesBreakPracticeOur LivesStageDevelopmentLetting GoCrisisPersonal DevelopmentFamiliarCyclesCrossroadsSpiritual PracticeAdoptingStages Of LifeLife Crisis Author:Caroline Myss

That's the source of my indignations, my dissatisfactions, however it comes out on the stage. I feel betrayed by the people I'm part of, these creatures, these magnificent creatures.” PeopleIfsThinkingMenWantFeelsLongTwoBigsBeliefMistakeSkyAtheismStageSourceCreaturesLong TimePropertySpeciesPositive AtheismCoreMagnificentBetrayedDissatisfactionPrivate PropertyIndignationBig Mistake Author:George Carlin
