The reminder is always there

It’s there at bed time, it’s ready when i wake up, when i change my clothes, use the toilet or shower, it’s just always there, waiting to remind me ―Ritchie from X

Every obstacle that peace must flow across is surmounted in just the same way; the fear that raised it yields to the love beyond, and so the fear is gone. And so it is with this. The desire to get rid of peace and drive the Holy Spirit from you fades in the presence of the quiet recognition that you love Him.

From beyond each of the obstacles to love, Love Itself has called. ―A Course in Miracles

If you know the enemy and know yourself,

If you know neither the enemy or yourself,
you will succumb in every battle.
-Sun Tzu, The Art of War
