Letting Go with Guy Finley

Real life never stops starting over; but, before one can dwell in this newness — to know a freedom that is evergreen — one must first see, and then consciously agree to step out of the stream of thought and into living now.

Fearlessness comes with the birth of this new understanding: the only reason life changes as it does is to reveal and perfect the secret goodness that both drives and underlies those same changes.
