“But how can there be a joyful planet without its being inhabited by joyful people? Our embrace of joy doesn’t rob others of the possibility. Quite the opposite is true – it liberates them, if they choose to be liberated.” – Marianne Williamson – A Woman’s Worth

“The mystical journey is a realm of devotional awareness by which we examine the meaning behind our experience and thus gain the spiritual power to endure. It is a space of greater knowing, as we transit from realms of hope, through worldly despair and ultimately on to illumination or victory. The mystical life is a life lived with an understanding of its place within the epic drama of God’s unfoldment. It seeks knowledge of where every situation fits into the resurrective intention of the universe.” ~ Marianne Williamson – Illuminata

“It is a woman’s function to mother the world by holding the idea of its possible perfection within her heart. We give birth to children, to men, to businesses, to each other. It is not the uterus but the heart that is our real womb. What emerges from the heart is a co-creation with God.” – Marianne Williamson – A Woman’s Worth

“The path of the pilgrim is the path to a heart that expands and does not constrict. That doesn’t mean we won’t have sorrowful days, but if there is some sorrow, we want sorrow that matters. Both sorrow and joy can stretch us and hone us. The issue is not whether we our day is easy, but whether we spend it with an open heart.” – Marianne Williamson – Illuminata

“The greatest gift we can give to a person in pain is to hold in our own minds the thought that there is a light beyond this darkness. What goes on externally is only the tip of the iceberg in any situation. The lessons, the real changes, the opportunities to grow-these are things the body’s eyes can’t see. They remain beneath the spiritual water line, but they are there. And they represent a much more vast picture of the soul’s journey than what we can see from the perspective of our physical senses. Growth is not always about getting what we think we want. Always, it’s about becoming the men and women we have the potential to be. Loving, pure, honest, clear.” – Marianne Williamson – A Return To Love

“The scars on our hearts do not last forever. They are the temporary signs of a tender soul who has touched the earth and been burned by such a low descent. Once the earth has been redeemed and our relationships are returned to God, the scars within us will be miraculously healed.” ~ Marianne Williamson – A Woman’s Worth
