"When you come FROM 'happiness', you do certain things
because you ARE happy -- as opposed to the old paradigm
in which you did things that you hoped would MAKE you happy.

When you come FROM 'wisdom', you do certain things
because you ARE wise, not because you are trying to get to wisdom.

When you come FROM 'love', you do certain things
because you ARE love, not because you want to have love.

"Everything changes; everything turns around, when you come
FROM 'being', rather that seeking to 'be'... Here is the divine dichotomy. 
The way to 'get there' is to 'be there'. Just BE where you choose to GET!

There's nothing you have to do. You want to be happy? Be
happy. You want to be wise? Be wise. You want to be love?
Be love."

F*** Me, I think that's it..! The meaning of life, the universe & everything. Knew it was something ridiculously simple. Thanks, Phil. Got a whole load of cliches here to try & carry all that out with like ~ easier said than done, progress not perfection, work in progress, etc lol I'm certainly going to take your gem to heart & remember it very dearly. Thanks for posting these, Danielle :)
