The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom
The Four Agreements is a must read when embarking on a spiritual journey. Bringing ancient Toltec wisdom to life, author Don Miguel Ruiz exposes the false beliefs we have about our own limits and perceptions in life. Lovely, clear, and inspiring.
Key Takeaways:
- Words are powerful, so it’s important to use that power to increase love. Have integrity in the way you communicate.
- Negative or positive, don’t take anything others say about you personally. Releasing attachment to the opinions of others brings freedom.
- Instead of making assumptions, use tools of communication to express yourself and make informed decisions.
- Always try to the the best you can in any situation. Life is full of ups and downs, and your “best” can vary, but always try to do the best you can.
“Prayer for Love
Thank You, Creator of the Universe for the gift of Life you have given me,
Thank You for giving me everything that I have ever needed,
Thank You for the opportunity to experience this beautiful body and this wonderful mind,
Thank You for living inside me with all Your Love and Your pure and boundless Spirit,
with Your warm and radiating Light.
Thank You for using my words, for using my eyes, for using my heart to share your love wherever I go.
I love You just the way you are and because I am your creation, I love myself just the way I am.
Help me to keep the Love and the Peace in my Heart and to make that Love a new way of life, that I may live in Love the rest of my life.
Amen.”
