“Spirituality is not about how far up the mountain we get but how many we take with us.”
Earnie Larsen

“What would we think of people who threw litter on their own front lawns, poured a few cups of sugar in their gas tanks, and then splashed some catsup on their clothes before going to the big interview? Would we say that such behavior is merely foolish or downright dangerous? Would we think of these people as rational? Would rational people sabotage their own well-being, their own possibilities for the future? What would be the point of such behavior? What in the world could they be thinking? What are we thinking when we invest months of effort in our recovery only to let it dribble away? If the meetings are working for us, is it rational to stop going? If we’ve suffered for want of love, isn’t it self-defeating to stop phoning our new friends in the fellowship? Aren’t we sabotaging our own possibilities”
Earnie Larsen, Days of Healing, Days of Joy: Daily Meditations for Adult Children

“In the soul there is only the eternal present.”
Earnie Larsen, Believing In Myself: Daily Meditations for Healing and Building Self-Esteem
