The Rochester group [of VOTF], however, was met with some concern as they found it hard to believe my account as it unfolded before them. I feel that some people have a hard time with the truths around us, not only the sexual abuse by priests, but all bad things. I call it chosen ignorance. This modified form of ignorance is found in people who, if confronted with certain truths realize that they have to accept them and thereby acknowledge evil, and that scares them. Opening up and letting the truth in might knock them off their perceived center. It is too hard, period." (VOTF - Voice of the Faithful - a Catholic group that wants to change the Church, keep the faith.) ↗

In existence you are body and mind, but in absolute you dissolve. In existence there is sorrow; in absolute there is bliss. In existence there is change; in absolute there is reality. In existence you are known; in absolute you are energy In existence you are thought, in absolute total awareness. In existence you are matter, in absolute you are pure Spirit." www.booksonspirituality.com ↗

You can make change or it can make YOU. Change is to keep us on our toes. Change is to make us look more closely. What doesn't change are the arms you use to hug with. Those stay the same. ↗

Staying with detractors is like sleeping in a room located just behind the public toilet. You will never feel comfortable until you relocate. ↗

Being the first to cross the finish line makes you a winner in only one phase of life. It's what you do after you cross the line that really counts. ↗
