"WE MUST BEGIN BY FACING OUR CIRCUMSTANCES HONESTLY.

I AM NOT SUGGESTING YOU RESIGN YOURSELF

TO YOUR CURRENT SITUATION,

BUT ACCEPT THE TRUTH OF IT AS IT IS RIGHT NOW,

...

PLEASE DO NOT START TO MOBILIZE TO CHANGE YOURSELF.

[RATHER,]

RELAX   INTO  YOURSELF

ACCEPT YOURSELF JUST AS YOU ARE RIGHT NOW,

&  ALLOW YOURSELF TO SIMPLY BE."

-MARY SAUNDERS, RHYTHMS OF CHANGE
