Each time you meet
an old emotional pattern
with presence, your awakening
to truth can deepen.
There’s less identification with
the self in the story and more
ability to rest in the awareness
that is witnessing what’s happening.
You become more able to abide
in compassion, to remember
and trust your true home.
Rather than cycling repetitively
through old conditioning,
you are actually spiraling
toward freedom.
(Tara Brach)
