FIRST BECOME ACCOUNTABLE TO MAKE ROOM SO OUR INNER SPIRIT CAN FLOURISH -
" What we must do, rather than try to exert power and control over our defects, is step out of the way and allow a loving God to work in our lives. One part of this process involves becoming responsible for our behavior." (It Works, How & Why, p. 43)
THEN WE COME TO TERMS WITH OUR FEARS SO WE DON'T GET CONSUMED BY HATE -
"The word anorexia comes from the Greek word orexis, meaning appetite." "Weight concerns and fear of fat transform into a hatred of food and a hatred of the body because the body demands the nurturance of food." (Sexual Anorexia, p. 1-2)
"What is needed ... is
understanding fear; that
means, watch it, learn about
it, come directly into con-
tact with it. We are to learn
about fear, not how to
escape from it."
- Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895 - 1986) Indian spiritual author
*HP - Higher Power - is any power greater than oneself. Like Nature, the Cosmos, or even the legal system.
