WHY IT'S SO HARD TO LET GO OF OUR PAIN - 

"Do we really want to be rid of our resentments, our anger, our fear? Many of us cling to our fears, doubts, self-loathing or hatred because there is a certain distorted security in familiar pain. It seems safer to embrace what we know than to let go of it for the unknown." (The Basic Text, p. 34) 




TRANSVERSING GAUNTLETS OF THE SOUL THRU THE UNKNOWN - 

"The problem of resolving fear has two aspects. We shall have to try for all the freedom from fear that is possible for us to attain. Then we shall need to find both the courage and grace to deal constructively with whatever fears remain." (As Bill Sees It, p. 61) 



"But we
need not fear
that we can lose
anything by the pro-
gress of the soul.
The soul may be
trusted to the
end."

- Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 - 1882) U.S. Poet, Transcendentalist and lecturer




*HP - Higher Power - is any power greater than oneself, like Nature, the Cosmos, or even the legal system.
