Monday Meditation: Save Yourself

No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.

-The Buddha

If you are looking for someone to save you during your grief freefall, look in the mirror. Others will try to mold you into the person they want you to be…and that isn’t going to give you the life you seek. You are your own savior. You can pick up the pieces, you can put things together and reconfigure a brilliant future to live. You know what you need.

Trust yourself.
